Ingredients

  • 4tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil
  • 4tablespoonshigh-quality balsamic vinegar
  • 1teaspoonDijon mustard
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1poundsalmon filets, with skin
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1(5 ounce) packagefresh baby spinach
  • 1mediumred bell pepper, chopped
  • 8mediumfresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 16largefresh strawberries, sliced
  • 4tablespoonschopped pecans
  • 4slicescooked bacon, crumbled

  • Directions

    Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl for the vinaigrette. Stir briskly to combine.

    Brush salmon with 1 teaspoon of the vinaigrette on the cut side, and season with salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining vinaigrette.

    Clean the grates of an outdoor grill and preheat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

    Place the salmon on a grilling mat or fish grill basket on the hot grill, skin side down. Grill for about 10 minutes. Using a turner, carefully flip the salmon, or turn the grill basket, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Salmon should flake easily with a fork when done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

    Transfer salmon to a plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest while preparing the salad.

    Combine spinach, red bell pepper, mushrooms, strawberries, and reserved vinaigrette in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Remove skin from salmon and flake.

    Divide salad among individual plates, top with flaked salmon, and garnish with chopped pecans and crumbled bacon.



    Cook's Note:

    This recipe may also be prepared as composed, or layered, salads, with approximately 2 tablespoons vinaigrette drizzled over each salad.
