Spiced Salmon

Spiced Salmon

with Orange Arugula Salad, Couscous, and Lemon Shallot Dressing

Whoever thought of adding citrus fruit to salad was a downright genius. We can’t get enough of the tangy and peppery combination, especially when it comes with a side of fluffy couscous and tender salmon.

Instructions

Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and mince 2 Tablespoons shallot. Zest the lemon and orange (you’ll need about ½ teaspoon from each). Peel the orange with your hands before thinly slicing, end to end, into rounds. Remove any seeds. Halve the lemon. Thinly slice the celery.

Make the dressing
2

In a large bowl, whisk together the juice of half a lemon, 2 Tablespoons shallot, the lemon and orange zest, and a large drizzle of olive oil (to taste). Season with salt and pepper. Set half the dressing aside for the couscous.

3

Cook the couscous: Bring 1 cup water and a pinch of salt to a boil in a small pot. Once boiling, add the couscous. Cover and remove from heat.

Cook the salmon
4

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Pat dry the salmon with a paper towel. Season on all sides with salt, pepper, and the Turkish spice blend. Add the salmon to the pan. Cook 3-4 minutes per side, until opaque in the middle. Remove and discard the skin.

Toss the salad
5

Toss the arugula, orange, and celery into the bowl with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add extra olive oil and lemon juice if needed.

6

Finish and serve: Fluff the couscous with a fork, and drizzle with the reserved lemon shallot dressing. Serve the spiced salmon on a bed of couscous with the orange arugula salad on the side. Enjoy!
