Salmon is delicious with chilled salad greens and tomatoes. This
fish is the perfect ingredient for a Louisiana summer salad. Top
it with a light vinaigrette and serve with fresh-squeezed lemonade
or iced tea.
Ingredients:
6 (5–8 ounce) salmon fillets
¼ cup fresh herbs (tarragon, thyme, basil, chervil), mixed
and chopped
mixed baby salad greens
pear and currant tomatoes
½ cup vegetable oil
1½ cups rice flour
salt and cracked black pepper to taste
1 tbsp chopped chives
Method:
Preheat oven to 275°F. In a 10-inch heavy-bottomed sauté
pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Season fillets with salt and
pepper, then coat evenly with herb mixture. Coat with rice flour
and shake off excess. Sauté 2 fillets at a time, 3–5
minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Place cooked
fish on a large cookie sheet in oven to keep warm. Wash salad greens
and tomatoes and dry well. Divide greens and tomatoes into 6 bowls.
Slice each salmon fillet into about 4 (1-inch) cubes and place on
top of greens. Serve with orange-basil vinaigrette or cane syrup
vinaigrette.
