INGREDIENTS:
- ½ cup loosely packed fresh dill, plus more for garnish
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 small clove of garlic
- 2 medium avocados, chopped, divided
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt, divided
- 2 teaspoons avocado oil
- 4 (5 oz) skinless salmon fillets
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- 3 cups spring mix salad greens
- 1 cup thinly sliced radishes
- 1 cup matchstick carrots
- 1 cup sliced snap peas
- Lemon wedges
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Add the dill, water, lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, garlic, ½ of an avocado, ¼ cup oil, and ¼ teaspoon salt into a blender. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon evenly with pepper and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Place the salmon in the pan and cook until golden on the bottom and mostly opaque along the sides, about 4 minutes. Carefully flip the fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
- In a large bowl, combine the salad greens, radish, carrots, snap peas, and the prepared dressing. Toss gently until evenly coated.
- Divide the salad among four plates and top with the remaining avocado.
- Top each salad with a salmon fillet, a lemon wedge, and garnish with additional dill, if desired.
