SPICY SALMON SALAD
Steps:
- For the rub: Put the fennel seeds in a small bowl and crush lightly with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the dried onion, cayenne, cumin, oregano, paprika, salt and pepper and mix together.
- For the salmon: Spoon the rub onto the salmon fillets on both sides and rub in. (Don't do this more than 5 minutes ahead of cooking or it will start to affect the fish and soften it.)
- Heat a large pan over high heat, add the olive oil and heat until very hot. Add the salmon fillets skin-side down. Cook on high until the flesh turns opaque about halfway up the side of the fillets, about 5 minutes. Cover with a lid or an inverted frying pan. Turn the heat off and leave it for 5 minutes; the heat and steam will cook the top of the fish so it will be crisp on the bottom and cooked through.
- For the salad: Meanwhile, add the arugula and spinach to a bowl. Add the red onion to the center and scatter the fennel and fronds around the edges of the bowl. Drizzle the balsamic only on the red onion. Sprinkle the rest of the salad with salt and pepper and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss everything together.
- Add a heap of salad to 2 plates and top each with a salmon fillet.
GRILLED SALMON SANDWICHES
Steps:
- For the salmon, heat coals in an outdoor grill and brush the top of the grill with oil. Rub the outside of the salmon with olive oil, salt, and pepper, to taste. Grill for 5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is almost cooked through. Remove to a plate and allow it to rest for 15 minutes.
- For the sauce, place the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, basil, dill, scallions, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until combined. Add the capers and pulse 2 or 3 times.
- To assemble the sandwiches, slice the rolls in 1/2 crosswise. Spread a tablespoon of sauce on each cut side. On the bottom 1/2, place some mesclun salad and then a piece of salmon. Place the top of the roll on the salmon and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Place first 4 ingredients in medium bowl; stir in mayonnaise to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Halve each bread square horizontally. Top 4 pieces with arugula, then salmon; cover with remaining bread.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh salmon. If you don't have access to fresh salmon, you can use frozen salmon, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- To make sure the salmon is cooked through, cook it over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
- If you don't have mayonnaise, you can use Greek yogurt or sour cream instead.
- For a spicier sandwich, add more cayenne pepper to the mayonnaise mixture.
- If you don't have celery, you can use cucumber or red onion instead.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately, or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
