Salad with Marinated and Grilled Salmon

in

A tasty dish — a single-course recipe with a salmon fillet previously marinated in a mix of mixed peppercorns and a few strips of lemon zest from untreated or organic fruit!

Just add a salad of mixed leaves, but we could also combine a base of grilled vegetables such as zucchini, peppers, eggplant as you like to have a dish that can be prepared in every season.

Ingredients for the recipe: Salad with marinated and grilled salmon

  • 1 package mixed salad greens

  • 1/2 lemon (zest cut into strips)
  • 2 tbsp green peppercorns (whole)
  • 2 tbsp pink peppercorns (whole)
  • 1/2 tsp thyme
  • to taste extra virgin olive oil

Tools for the recipe: Salad with marinated and grilled salmon

  • Bowls
  • Grills

Preparation for the recipe: Salad with marinated and grilled salmon

  • I prepare the marinade by mixing the green and pink peppercorns in a bowl and crushing them with a mortar or a meat mallet.

    Then I add some lemon zest strips — only the yellow part, excluding the white pith (albedo), which tastes bitter.

  • I add salt, black pepper and fresh or dried thyme to the bowl, then pour a few tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and use this mix to season the salmon fillets.

    I seal with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least one hour to absorb the various aromas.

  • After the marinating time, I put a grill on the heat and let the metal heat up properly.

    Then I drain the salmon fillets from the marinade, pat them lightly, and cook them on both sides leaving the inside slightly pink: it’s essential not to let the fish become dry!

  • While the salmon cooks, I wash the mixed greens and the datterini tomatoes, slice a few rings of onion if I like, and arrange the vegetables into four individual bowls separately.

    When the fillets are cooked and tender, I place them on each plate, adding a little of the marinade or, very simply, some extra virgin olive oil and a splash of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, for that touch of acidity that, for me, doesn’t upset the balance of the dish!

  • At this point we can sit down to enjoy this salad of mixed greens, datterini tomatoes and a fillet of salmon marinated with mixed peppercorns!

    Enjoy your meal! Annalisa
