Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-ounce each) Salmon fillet
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 cups Baby spinach
- 1.5 cups (halved) Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup (thinly sliced) Red onion
- 0.5 cup (crumbled) Feta cheese
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.
Brush the salmon fillets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the salmon on the preheated grill, skin side down if it has skin. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and set aside to cool slightly.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey to make the lemon vinaigrette. Adjust the seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper, if needed.
In a large salad bowl, add the baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
Break the grilled salmon into large chunks and add to the salad bowl.
Drizzle the salad with the lemon vinaigrette and gently toss to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh Grilled Salmon Spinach Salad!
