Easy Avocado Salmon Salad Recipe
This avocado salmon salad is a keeper! It's loaded with all the best ingredients and juicy pan-seared salmon. The fresh lemon dressing is so easy and gives this salad amazing flavor. Let's start with the dressing. You'll need fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, and freshly chopped dill. Stir everything together to create a tangy and aromatic dressing.
For the salmon, season it with garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook it in a non-stick pan until golden brown and cooked through. Once cooked, spoon the dressing over each fillet.
While the salmon cools down, prepare the salad. Wash, chop, and spin dry a medium head of romaine lettuce. Slice an English cucumber and add it to the salad bowl. Thinly slice six radishes and half of a small red onion, and add them to the bowl. Lastly, add two avocados, sliced.
To serve the salad, you can either break up the salmon and toss it with the rest of the salad or serve it on top for a fancier presentation. Drizzle generously with the dressing.
