Salmon Salad on Arugula
Photo: Iain Bagwell; Styling: Cindy Barr
One serving of this tasty fresh fish salad packs in a full day's worth of omega-3 fatty acids. Keep refrigerated in an airtight container up to two days.
How to Make It
Step 1
Sprinkle salmon evenly with salt and pepper. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add salmon; cook 6 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Cool to room temperature; flake with a fork.
Step 2
Combine salmon, 1 tablespoon juice, yogurt, and next 3 ingredients (through capers) in a medium bowl. Refrigerate 30 minutes or up to 3 hours.
Step 3
Combine remaining 1 tablespoon oil, remaining 1 tablespoon juice, arugula, and onion in a bowl. Toss gently to coat. Divide arugula mixture evenly among 4 plates. Top evenly with salmon mixture.

This was excellent. I served it warm, made enough to chill for another salad for lunch. Delicious!

A delicious, light summer seafood dish! I'd recommend letting it chill as long as possible. I used double the lemon, because I really enjoy citrus, and a little more of both sour cream and yogurt. Topped with scallions. Next time I'll add a little fat with 2% yogurt, as the dressing was a little watery with the nonfat...and perhaps try fresh dill instead of the basil. And mix up the greens with baby kale, etc...they don't need the extra oil, just a squeeze of lemon. Nice!

Excellent. I did not chill-- served salmon mixture warm on arugula. Also, I just barely broke up the salmon. For some reason this reminded me of something you might get at a country club or similary establishment.
