Roasted Salmon over Mixed Greens

I came across this recipe while reading through one of my new favorite blogs, Barbells and Bacon.

Roasted Salmon

Ingredients:

Wild Caught Salmon
Seasoning to Taste (salt, pepper, coriander, cumin)
Coconut oil
Kerrygold herb butter (yum!)

1. Preheat oven to 300 F and heat a skillet on med-high heat.
2. Soak the fish in a lemon-water bath for 30 seconds to remove any fishy flavor.  I had never done this before but it worked perfectly.
3. Pat dry and add seasonings.  Add coconut oil to the pan and place salmon skin side down in the skillet to begin developing a crust (should just take a few minutes).
4. Place a few pieces of the herb butter on top, and then place the pan in the oven. Cook until internal temperature reads 120 degrees. Remove salmon and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Mixed Salad

Ingredients:

Mixed greens
Any veggies you want on your salad

Balsamic-Goat Cheese Vinaigrette

Ingredients:

Egg yolk
1 tsp hot sauce
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper
Balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp fresh goat cheese
Olive oil

1. Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse until incorporated. Slowly drizzle in olive oil until desired thickness is reached.

Place salmon on top of mixed greens and drizzle with vinaigrette!  Enjoy!
