Recipe
Salmon & shaved fennel
Salmon over shaved fennel and watercress.
Ingredients
- Salmon — 6 oz (1 fillet (or leftover))
- Fennel — 4 oz (½ bulb, shaved)
- Watercress — 1 cup
- Garlic-infused olive oil — 1 Tbsp
- Lemon juice — 2 tsp
- Sea salt
Method
- Toss the fennel and watercress with the oil, lemon and salt.
- Sear or warm the salmon and set on top.
Notes
Shave the fennel paper-thin (mandolin or sharp knife) — thick slices are unpleasantly fibrous raw. If you don't have a mandolin, the salad-flavor still works at thicker cuts but takes 5 minutes of dressing-soak time to soften.
