This one-dish grilled salmon recipe is perfect for a busy weeknight. You'll love the homemade vinaigrette recipe. Ingredients:
cooking spray |
4 (4-ounce) salmon fillets |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2 (6-inch) whole-wheat pitas |
8 ounces mixed salad greens |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled goat cheese |
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Coat the grill with cooking spray, and heat to medium-high. Sprinkle salmon fillets with salt and pepper, and grill 4 minutes on each side (skin side up first) or just until done. Remove skin; transfer fillets to a plate.
2. Grill pitas for about 45 seconds per side, or until lightly browned. Cut each into 4 wedges.
3. Divide salad among 4 plates, and top with goat cheese and salmon. Whisk vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl, and drizzle over greens. Top each salad with 2 pita crisps.
4. Wine note: The tangy goat cheese and smoky salmon in the salad echo the contrasting lime fruit and rich oakiness of a California Fumé Blanc. Look for the vibrant, melony-tasting Chateau St. Jean, around $13.
