Sometimes I crave a nice light salad with some healthy protein. This is my favorite combo: the tang from the pickled red onions, the simplicity of the baked salmon and the arugula that meets its perfect matches: lemon juice and truffle oil.
Ingredients
½ red onion, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp sugar
1 cup water
1 lb salmon fillets
1 tsp salt and pepper
1 tsp olive oil
1 lemon, juiced
2 tsp truffle oil
1 pkg arugula
Pinch salt
Instructions
Begin by pickling the red onion: toss sliced red onion in a small bowl with vinegar, sugar and water to cover.
Preheat oven to low broil and coat a baking dish with a drizzle of oil.
Place salmon skin-side down and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes, or until fish is flaky.
While salmon is baking, toss arugula with the olive oil, lemon juice, truffle oil and a pinch of salt.
Serve salmon over salad and top with pickled red onion to serve.
