Servings 6
Ingredients
For the Salmon
- 1 ½ pounds raw salmon
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
For the Salad
- ⅓ cup Persian or English cucumber, diced
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- ⅓ cup red bell pepper, diced
- ¼ cup red onion, diced
- ¼ cup Kalamata olives, quartered
- ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled
- Zest and juice from ½ lemon
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Add the salmon to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, that’s been sprayed with olive oil.
- Brush the olive oil over the salmon, then sprinkle the oregano, salt and pepper over the top.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until cooked through.
- Allow the salmon to cool for a few minutes, while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Add the mayonnaise, grated garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper to a small mixing bowl.
- Whisk until combined, then set aside while you prepare the salad.
- Once the salmon has cooled to room temperature, take a fork and flake off bite size pieces. If some are too big, don’t worry, they will break up more when you mix up the salad.
- Add the flaked salmon to a mixing bowl, along with the diced red bell pepper, red onion, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, parsley and chives.
- Pour the reserved dressing over the top, then gently toss to combine and serve at room temperature.
