For the Grilled Salmon

Method

For the Grilled Salmon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Ensure the fillets are evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).

  4. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.

For the Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the salmon is grilling, wash and dry the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Cut the cucumber into thin slices and slice the red onion into thin rings.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red onion. Toss gently to combine.

  3. 7

    Add the Salmon

    Once the salmon has rested, flake it into large pieces and add it to the salad mixture.

  4. 8

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.

  5. 9

    Serve

    Divide the salad into serving bowls and top with crumbled feta cheese. Enjoy your grilled salmon salad!
