Directions
1.To make the salmon salad: Whisk together all of the marinade/dressing ingredients (olive oil, lemon juice, dill, oregano, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper) in a large mason jar. Pour out half of the marinade into a large, shallow dish. Refrigerate the remaining marinade to use as the dressing later.
2. Coat the salmon fillet with the marinade. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear salmon on both sides until crispy and cooked to your liking.
3. While salmon is cooking, prepare all of the salad ingredients (romaine lettuce, tomato, avocado, cucumber, and red onion) and mix or arrange in a large salad bowl.
4. Slice salmon and arrange over the salad. Drizzle the salmon salad with the remaining dressing that you kept aside at step 1. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately, or refrigerate. Enjoy!

How and how long to keep the Salmon Salad leftovers?
This salmon salad recipe will keep well for 3 to 4 days stored in the refrigerator.
How to meal prep the salmon salad?
If you’d like to meal prep the salon salad, we suggest either storing each component of the salad separately and then combine the ingredients right before packing your lunch. Alternatively, you can also pack the ingredients together in meal prep containers but keep the salad dressing separate, in its own small container.
What best salmon to use for the salmon salad?
We like to use skinless sockeye salmon fillets for this salmon salad recipe. Sockeye salmon is a deep red in color and fairly low in fat. Anyway, you can use any salmon fillets you like or have on hand.
