Mixed Greens with Salmon & Lemon-Tarragon Vinaigrette Recipe

  • 6 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 pound salmon, cooked
  • 1/2 cup kalamata olives, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 3 tablespoons fresh tarragon, finely minced
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  1. The salmon should be broken into large chunks and free of any skin or fat.
  2. In a small mixing bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, lemon zest and tarragon.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the salad greens with just enough of the vinaigrette to lightly coat (about 1/2 more or less).
  4. Arrange the greens on individual serving plates. Top each with the salmon, the chopped olives and the chopped bell pepper. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over each plate. Serve.
