  • 2 ripe avocados halved, pitted, sliced

  • 1 lemon lemon juiced

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey honey

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Sharp knife
  • Small bowl
  • Serving bowls

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  2. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Rub each with olive oil, and squeeze lemon over the top. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, until it flakes easily with a fork and has a golden, crispy top. While it bakes, slice your avocados and prepare the greens.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and lime juice until the mixture is emulsified and fragrant.
  5. Once the salmon is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes to lock in moisture. Then, flake the salmon into bite-sized pieces with a fork.
  6. In a large bowl, gently toss the mixed greens, sliced avocados, and flaked salmon with the citrus dressing, ensuring everything is coated evenly but not mushed.
  7. Divide the salad into serving bowls and garnish with fresh herbs or toasted sesame seeds for extra crunch and aroma.
