Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
FOR THE SALMON
- 4 salmon fillets (about 3 ounces each)
- extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced, divided
- salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
FOR THE SALAD
- 6 cups torn romaine lettuce
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 2 large hard-boiled eggs quartered
- 4 slices turkey bacon cooked to a desired crispness and crumbled
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 avocado cut into slices
- 1 lemon sliced, for garnish
FOR THE DRESSING
- ¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice or to taste
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic minced
- Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
Cook the Salmon:
- Get ready to bake. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Season the salmon. Drizzle some oil over the top of each salmon, just enough to coat the salmon. Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper, and top each fillet with a bit of minced garlic.
- Bake. Place salmon fillets on the baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Roast for 15 to 18 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork. Remove from oven and set aside.
Prepare the Salad:
- Assemble. Arrange baby spinach and lettuce in a large salad bowl. Top the salad with the salmon, eggs, crumbled bacon, tomatoes, feta, and avocado. Set aside.
- Make the dressing. In a small mixing bowl or a jar with a lid, combine extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper; whisk until thoroughly incorporated. If using a jar, close it with a lid and shake the jar until well combined.
- Dress and serve. Pour dressing over the salad, lightly toss, garnish with lemon slices, and serve.
