Shop Salmon
Verlasso Salmon

Serves: 4

Prep Time: 15 min

This refreshing salmon salad features tender sushi-grade salmon, crisp mâche and frisée lettuce, and juicy citrus, all tossed in a light soy-lime dressing with toasted sesame seeds for a vibrant, healthy meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 oranges
  • 1 or 2 limes
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • 6 cups mâche (lamb’s lettuce) leaves
  • 2 cups frisée lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
  • 1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and thinly sliced (optional)
  • 7 ounces sushi-grade salmon, skin removed
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted

Directions

  1. Grate the zest of 1 orange and the lime into a large bowl.
  2. Squeeze 1 tablespoon of juice from the grated orange and 2 tablespoons of juice from the grated lime into the bowl.
  3. Whisk in the soy sauce and the oil. Set the dressing aside.
  4. Use a sharp knife to slice the rind and pith from the remaining oranges.
  5. Working over a mixing bowl, cut between the membranes to free the orange segments, letting them drop into the bowl.
  6. Pour any juice into a cup and reserve it for another use.
  7. Add the mâche, frisée, and cucumbers, if using, to the orange segments.
  8. Using a large sharp knife, cut the salmon into 1/3-inch-thick slices.
  9. Add the salmon to the bowl.
  10. Drizzle with the dressing, and toss gently to coat.
  11. Allow the flavors to meld for at least 2 minutes.
  12. Divide the salad among 4 serving plates.
  13. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds, and serve.
