Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pound(s) skinless salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 cup(s) frozen shredded hash browns (not thawed)
- 2 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon(s) olive oil
- 1/4 cup(s) sour cream
- 2 tablespoon(s) white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon(s) prepared horseradish

- 4 medium radishes, cut into wedges
Preparation
- 1. Season the salmon with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.

- 4. Carefully flip the salmon and cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more.

- 6. Divide the watercress and radishes among plates, drizzle with the dressing, and serve with the salmon.
