total timeIngredients
1 ½ lb yellow potatoes, (cut into ½-inch cubes, about 5 cups)
3 tbsp olive oil, (divided)
1 tsp kosher salt, (divided)
1 lb wild salmon, (cut into 4 filets*)
1 head lettuce, (chopped, romaine, frisee, butter, etc..., about 6-8 cups worth)
4 boiled eggs halved (optional)
1 avocado, (sliced or chopped)
Chopped nuts (optional)
Pickled red onions
Black pepper
⅓ cup olive oil
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tsp soy sauce or tamari
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp kosher salt
*You could also leave the salmon whole, it will just take a bit longer to cook. Easily use any other fish or protein!
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450F or 425F convection. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the potatoes, 2 tablespoons oil, and ½ teaspoon salt and toss to coat. Spread into an even layer and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Turn the heat down to 400F (I find salmon cooks better at a lower temp).
Arrange the salmon onto the baking sheet. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Rub around to coat. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through.
I like to move the potatoes to one side of the baking sheet and salmon to the other side and then flake up the salmon right on the baking sheet (you can remove the skins first if you’d like).
Add all dressing ingredients to a jar and shake vigorously to combine.
Add lettuce to your bowl and use your hands to toss with some of the dressing until well coated. Top with flaked salmon, potatoes, egg (if using), avocado, nuts (if using), and pickled red onion. Drizzle more dressing over top. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
