Salmon Nicoise Salad

This easy Salmon Nicoise Salad is a delightful twist on the traditional Nicoise salad. This salmon offers a rich, omega 3 packed alternative.

Ingredients:

2 4oz salmon fillets, boneless, skinless
2 tsp onion powder
3 Tbsp whole grain mustard
1/2 tsp kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1/3 pound mini yellow potatoes
1/2 lbs green beans, trimmed
4 cups lettuce, such as bibb or butter lettuce, torn into bit size pieces
2 large hard boiled eggs, quartered
1/2 cup marinated artichoke harts
1/3 cup kalamata olives, halved

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325F.

In a small bowl combine onion powder, whole grain mustard, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper; spread 1 Tbsp of the mixture onto each salmon filet and reserve the remaining. Bake salmon for 15 to 20 minutes, cool, and flake into large pieces. Reserve.

Mix the remaining mustard mixture with white wine vinegar and olive oil. Reserve.

While the salmon cooks, prepare veggies: Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, 20-25 minutes. In the last 5 minutes of boiling, add green beans. Drain and rinse under cold water. Seperate potatoes and green beans. Halve potatoes. Cool.

Build the salad. Add lettuce to a shallow serving bowl or platter. Working in bunches of the same ingredients top the lettuce with components; flaked salmon, potatoes, green beans, hard boiled eggs, kalamata olives and artichoke hearts. Drizzle with reserved mustard vinaigrette.

Enjoy!
