SEARED SALMON AVOCADO SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Season the salmon on both sides with sea salt and fresh ground pepper.
• Add bacon into a large non-stick pan* and place it over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side, then set aside on a paper towel to absorb the excess fat.
• In the same preheated skillet, add the salmon fillets, top-side down, and cook until golden and flaky, about 4-5 minutes on each side (cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your fillets).
• Set aside on a large shallow plate or bowl and flake it using 2 forks.
• To the same plate/bowl, add the remaining ingredients: hard boiled eggs, avocado, bacon, cucumber, olives, chives and dill.
• In a mixing jug, whisk all dressing ingredients until well combined.
• Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine. If you're meal prepping with this salad, then place it in airtight containers*, separately from the dressing. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
