Salad Base

Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Cook the Salmon

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear the salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through and flaky. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before flaking into bite-sized pieces.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 2

    Prepare Salad Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, sliced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced avocado. Toss gently to combine.

  2. 3

    Add Salmon

    Once the salmon is slightly cooled, add the flaked salmon to the salad mixture.

Making the Dressing

  1. 4

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic until well combined.

  2. 5

    Add Dressing to Salad

    Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are coated.

  3. 6

    Finish with Garnish

    Sprinkle sesame seeds, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro over the top of the salad as a garnish.
