This vibrant salad features crispy pan-seared salmon fillets paired with creamy avocado slices and crisp cucumber. Tossed in a zesty homemade sesame ginger dressing, it offers a perfect balance of savory, sweet, and nutty flavors for a nutritious meal.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and honey to make the dressing. Set aside.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon in the pan, skin-side down (if applicable), and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through to your preference. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, toss the mixed greens and cucumber with half of the dressing. Divide onto plates.
Top the greens with the cooked salmon and fresh avocado slices. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and garnish with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
