- Large serving bowl or individual plates
Instructions
Step 1: Place the dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well.
Step 2: Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper.
Step 3: Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 4: Place the salmon in the skillet skin side up. Cook for 3 minutes, or until deep golden.
Step 5: Turn the salmon and cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until cooked to your taste.
Step 6: Remove the salmon to a plate and cool for 5 minutes.
Assemble the salad
Step 7: Place the lettuce in a large bowl. Drizzle with a little dressing and toss.
Step 8: Place the lettuce in a large serving bowl or on individual plates. Top with the salmon, then arrange the tomato, cucumber, avocado, edamame and radish in piles around it.
Step 9: Sprinkle with the green onion and crispy shallots.
Step 10: Just before serving, drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad.
Notes
To substitute for rice vinegar, use apple cider vinegar, white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar. If using regular white vinegar, use slightly less; do not use balsamic vinegar.
Use another neutral-flavored oil in place of the olive oil if you prefer. Toasted sesame oil is brown and has a stronger sesame flavor than untoasted sesame oil.
