Ingredients

Salmon Salad
  • ½ English cucumber, cut in half lengthwise then sliced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 4 sticks celery, diced
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
Dressing
  • 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon gluten-free Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ¾ teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves – about 2 sprigs
  • ¾ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves – about 4 bunches
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
  • ¼ cup flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Turn the broiler of your oven on and line a baking sheet with foil.
  2. Place salmon on the foil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil fish about 4-5 inches from the heat for approximately 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Thinner steaks take between 5-8 minutes. When salmon is golden brown on top, remove and set aside to cool.
  3. Once cooled, break apart and place in a large bowl. Add cucumber, tomato, celery and green onions and set aside.
  4. Place dressing ingredients in a small food processor or blender and pulse until smooth. Pour over top of vegetable mixture.
  5. Sprinkle salad with fresh parsley and mustard seeds.
  6. Serve on a bed of greens, as a sandwich filling, or straight up!
