ingredients
- 6 ounces frozen salmon fillets
- 3⁄4 lb red new potato
- 3⁄4 pickling cucumber, sliced and quartered
- 1⁄2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved halved or 1/2 cup yellow pear tomato, halved
- 20 -30 nicoise olives
- 1⁄2 small red onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
- 2 tablespoons lemon-nut vinaigrette (I use recipe 180528)
- 2 cups torn mixed greens
- 2 hard-cooked eggs, cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons lemon-nut vinaigrette
- 2 pinches seasoning salt
directions
- Thaw fish, if frozen. Place fish steak on the greased unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 inches from the heat for 5 minutes. Turn fish and broil for 3 to 7 minutes more or just until fish begins to flake easily. Cool to room temperature. Break or cut salmon into large chunks. (You should have about 1 cup.).
- Cut the potatoes into cubes. Place the cubes in a microwave safe dish, sprinkle with seasoned salt, and cover with plastic wrap. Cook on your microwave's potato setting, or 3-4 minutes on high.
- In a medium bowl combine the potatoes, cucumbers, cherry or pear tomatoes, olives, and red or white onion. Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetable mixture. Toss to coat.
- Divide the mixed greens between 2 individual plates. Spoon the vegetable mixture over the greens. Arrange the salmon or tuna and the hard-cooked egg on top of the vegetables. Drizzle with vinaigrette. Serves 2 generously.

Absolutely delicious! Even my teen that won't eat cucumbers and usually balks at salads has asked me to make this twice now. I didn't have the ingredients to make the viniagrette the first go-round and used a basil balsam vinegar/oil instead. Am making this again tonight and will try the lemon-nut vinaigrette. This is a wonderful dish, easy and fast to prepare, too. Many thanks!
