It’s easier than you think to prepare a salad at home that you’d gladly pay for in a restaurant: you just need a few special ingredients that you can easily pick up at your grocery store. In this case, start with tender baby lettuces, see-through thin slices of fresh fennel and grilled fresh salmon fillets. Then top with this citrusy salsa, which gets a sweet and salty accent from seasoned rice-wine vinegar, found with other Asian condiments from your grocery store. It’s as simple as that. Restaurant quality, no tipping required.
Directions
- Combine oranges, onion, basil and oil in medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Mix orange juice, vinegar, and mustard in small bowl.
- Whisk in oil; season with salt and pepper.
- Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
- Lightly brush grill with oil.
- Grill salmon, turning once, until just cooked through, about 10 to12 minutes, depending on thickness.
- Combine salad blend and fennel in large bowl; add vinaigrette and gently toss to coat.
- Arrange salad on plates with salmon fillets.
- Spoon orange salsa over top of salmon.
