Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided use
Four 8-ounce portions wild salmon, skin on, pin bones removed
Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1 large bunch Tuscan kale, (about 12 ounces) stemmed and torn into bite-size pieces
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Grated zest and juice from 1 large lime
1 teaspoon honey

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400F. Set an oven rack in the lower-middle position.
Prepare the salmon: Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to grease the bottom of a rimmed sheet pan. Place the salmon, skin side down, on a flat surface and season with salt. In a small bowl, mix together the cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and mustard and set aside. Sift an even layer of the spices over the salmon and arrange filets skin side down, on the baking sheet, with space between each.
Prepare the kale: In a medium bowl, massage the kale with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and the garlic. Arrange it all around (but not covering) the fish on the pan. Sprinkle the oregano on top of the salmon.
Cook the salmon: Place the pan in the lower-middle rack and roast for 10 to 12 minutes for medium to medium-rare salmon. (For well-done fish, leave in the oven an additional 5-8 minutes.) Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle all of the lime zest and juice over the fish. Drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.

Tips for Perfect Pan-Seared Salmon with Kale and Apple Salad:

Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1-inch thick and has a deep pink color. Avoid fillets that are too thin or have a lot of white streaks.
Season the salmon well: Season the salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
Cook the salmon over medium heat: Cook the salmon over medium heat in a non-stick skillet. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan and will also help to cook the fish evenly.
Sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side: Sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through. The salmon should be opaque in the center and should flake easily with a fork.
Serve the salmon with a kale and apple salad: Serve the pan-seared salmon with a kale and apple salad for a healthy and delicious meal. The salad is made with kale, apples, walnuts, and a tangy dressing.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared salmon with kale and apple salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the salad is light and refreshing. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
