GRILLED SALMON NIçOISE SALAD
One of our favorite Summer Salad! Grilled Salmon Niçoise Salad with grilled asparagus and vibrant Mediterranean flavors of roasted red peppers, olives, artichokes, tomatoes with spicy arugula. This salad is a great weeknight dinner salad, is healthier, filling and need very less active prep/cook time. Salad Dressing takes 2 minutes to assemble. Grill salmon and asparagus on an indoor grilling pan and you have a protein-packed and delicious summer dinner ready in 30 minutes. Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Low Carb and Keto Diet Friendly.With such vibrant colors and zippy flavors, I also serve it as Antipasto Salad i.e. Salad before meal, the first Salad course of a three course meal.What you need for Grilled Salmon Niçoise SaladThere are three parts of this Salmon Niçoise Salad:Mustard Caper DressingGrilled Salmon and AsparagusAn array of Vibrant Mediterranean flavors of olives, artichokes, roasted red bell peppers, cherry tomatoes with pepperoncini, eggs and arugula.1. Mustard Caper DressingIngredients for Mustard and Capers (Niçoise) DressingHere's what you need for the dressing:Olive OilLemon JuiceCapersMustardGarlicOreganoWorcestershire Sauce or Anchovy Paste Salt and Black PepperDressing takes only 2 minutes to assemble. Here's what I do to make the dressing: In a small bowl add all salad dressing ingredients (except capers) with 1/4 tsp of salt.Whisk well to emulsify. Mix in chopped capers. Taste and adjust salt and lemon juice. Set aside.Spoon over the salad when ready to server.2. Grilled Salmon and AsparagusGrilling Salmon is not only quick, fish also cooks moist and perfectly flaky. In summers, I always prefer to cook food in grill pan or outdoor BBQ. A best way for us to escape the scorching summer of California! Plus nothing beats the flavor of grill on a hot summer evening. Right? Here is how I grill Salmon and Asparagus:I start by seasoning both; salmon fillet and trimmed asparagus. To prepare Salmon for Niçoise Salad, take salmon out on a wide plate. Wipe any liquid on salmon with clean paper towel. Coat salmon in olive oil, season with salt and black pepper. Prepare asparagus the same way.Wiping any liquid from salmon helps salmon get perfect char from grill, and also it will not stick/steam when grilled. Always make sure to start with a hot, pre heated grill. Place Salmon skin side down and place asparagus on the side. Since fish cooks fast and so does asparagus. It makes sense to use same grill pan to grill both, salmon and asparagus, side by side.Salmon is ready to flip when skin gets good grill marks (about 2-3 minutes on a hot grill). Asparagus also starts to change color to crisp green. When turning salmon skin side up, also toss/turn the asparagus so that all pieces pickup some char and flavor. Another 2-3 minutes and salmon is ready.Transfer salmon in a clean plate. Using two forks, gently flake/break salmon apart for serving in salad. Also, rough chop the grilled asparagus. Tip:To avoid salmon skin sticking on grill; always grill salmon on a preheated hot grill coated with a little coat of cooking oil. You can use cooking oil spray or brush.3. Mediterranean flavors for Nicoise SaladFew versions of traditional Niçoise Salad also has green beans and potatoes. However, I decided to pick asparagus oven green beans for two reasons;Love love asparagus. It's healthy, cooks quickly and taste amazing. When in season, I often substitute asparagus for beans.Due to quick cooking time, you one need one pan to cook both salmon and asparagus. Saves from the step of boiling water and blanching beans.Other than asparagus and potatoes (which I skipped), all ingredients are quintessential for a bold flavor Mediterranean salad. Here's what you need to make this salad:Arugula - Go for baby arugula. Baby Arugula is sweeter and tender which pairs well with tomatoes and salmon. Use pre-washed unless using arugula from your own garden (can't get fresher than that!) Pre-washed is quick to use. If washing yourself, please invest in a Salad Spinner. It saves ton of time and delicate leaves are never bruised. I have a basic manual spinner, nothing fancy, which I bought from Ikea for $10. I use it all the time for washing greens. In my opinion, its a best investment for salad lovers. Hard Boiled Eggs - Hard boiled eggs are good filling addition to salad. Of-course, also a usual suspect of Niçoise Salad. If making salad ahead of time then boil and peel eggs and keep refrigerated. Slice for salad just before serving.To hard boil eggs, put eggs in sauce pan and fill with cold water so that eggs are dipped in water. Boil rapidly for 12 minutes. For perfect hard boiled eggs, set aside in hot water for additional 10 minutes.Artichokes, Roasted Red Bell Peppers and Olives - The Three-flavor-bombs of Nicoise Salad as I like to call these. Use water packed artichokes for clean artichoke flavor. Oil packed are fine too. Only get rid of extra oil as sometimes it muddles with flavor of dressing or increase oil in the salad. Same goes with roasted red bell peppers and olives. In short, especially for salads, water or brine packed are better than oil packed.Cherry Tomatoes - Go for ripe sweet cherry or grape tomatoes. The fresh ripe seasonal tomatoes work perfect too.Tip:Make ahead this Salad by making the dressing; boil eggs, chop and pack other ingredients in a container. Salmon and asparagus are best when cooked fresh, up-to an hour or just before serving.4. AssemblyFor good presentation, assemble salad in layers on a large oval or round platter. For weeknights, you can go easy and serve any way you prefer. For Niçoise, I love to drizzle dressing on salad just before serving. Ingredients in this salad already pack a big punch of flavor. However, the tangy mustard-lemon Caper dressing brings out the flavor even more. You will love the combination of dressing with hard boiled eggs (pure yum!)That said, assembly is really easy! Here's how you assemble the Grilled Salmon Niçoise Salad:Start with a big platter that is narrow in depth.Layer arugula as base green.Keep warm ingredients together i.e. layer salmon, hard boiled sliced eggs and grilled asparagus as first three layers (three lines) of salad. Next, layer cherry tomatoes followed by olives, artichokes, and red bell peppers.Drizzle few spoons of Salad dressing on all layers. Serve remaining dressing on the side.Sounds easy, right? Always remember to use fresh and quality ingredients. This Salmon Salad is so easy to prep and looks like a million dollars. I bet anyone would want to dig-in, right away!Note:Grilled Salmon Salad is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Keto Diet Friendly. Unlike regular Niçoise Salad with potatoes, Salmon Niçoise is also low in carbs and starch. Plus loads of veggies and Mediterranean flavors make it a perfectly healthy and filling dinner.Next trip to grocery store.. bring home some fresh salmon and asparagus. Try delicious Grilled Salmon Salad for dinner or wow your guests by serving as Antipasto Salad. (I know if you love Mediterranean flavors, the rest of ingredients are in your pantry, already!)Happy Cooking! Savita x

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Cut the salmon into 1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces (about 16 total). Gently toss the fish in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon mayonnaise to coat. Sprinkle with the seafood seasoning and toss to coat. Set aside.
- Make the dressing: Combine the remaining 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, the lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, 1 clove garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a mini food processor or blender and process until the garlic is blended. With the machine running, add 3 tablespoons olive oil in a slow stream to make a smooth dressing. Refrigerate until ready to use. Lightly brush the bread with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper.
- Grill the salmon, turning, until lightly charred on both sides and just cooked through, 3 to 7 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish (turn the fish only when it releases easily from the grill so it doesn't break apart). Grill the bread slices, flipping once, until marked and lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Rub the warm bread with the remaining garlic clove.
- Combine all but 2 tablespoons of the dressing with the romaine and snap peas in a large bowl and toss well. Divide among shallow bowls and top with the salmon pieces and remaining dressing. Serve with the grilled baguette.

- Preheat oven to 400°F. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil over high. Add potatoes; cook, until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add green beans; cook until potatoes are tender and green beans are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes and green beans to a bowl filled with ice water, reserving boiling water in pot.
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower eggs into boiling water; cook until whites are set and yolks are jammy, 7 1/2 minutes. Transfer eggs to bowl of ice water. Let potatoes, green beans, and eggs stand in ice water until cooled, about 5 minutes. Drain. Halve potatoes, and peel and quarter eggs.
- While potatoes, green beans, and eggs cook and cool, whisk together mustard, lemon zest, and 1/2 teaspoon each of the salt and pepper in a medium bowl. While whisking, gradually add 6 tablespoons of the oil, continuing to whisk until emulsified. Measure 2 tablespoons mixture into a separate small bowl for spreading on salmon, and set aside. Whisk lemon juice, shallot, and honey into remaining mustard mixture in medium bowl until combined; set dressing aside.
- Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons oil evenly onto a baking sheet. Place salmon, skin side down, on oiled baking sheet, and sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Spread reserved 2 tablespoons mustard mixture evenly over salmon. Bake in preheated oven until just cooked through, about 12 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool 5 minutes.
