Salmon Couscous Salad With Feta Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the first 5 ingredients; sprinkle over salmon., Place salmon on oiled grill rack, skin side down. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 10-12 minutes., In a large bowl, toss salad greens with cucumber, tomato and cheese; divide among four plates. Top with salmon; drizzle with vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Boil the water and olive oil. When boiling, remove from heat, stir in the couscous, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork into a large bowl to cool.
• Flake the salmon and add to the bowl.
• Briefly steam the peas, rinse in cold water and add, then do the same for the corn.
• Add the onion, parsley and dill.
• Mix a bit of the dressing into the mustard to combine, then add the rest of the dressing and lemon juice.
• Sprinkle over the couscous, mixingly. (You know what I mean.) Taste to see if there's enough mustard and lemon for your taste. Mustard can be added thinned with liquid, such as more dressing, lemon juice, or water. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
• Chill for at least 2 hours if you have time, but it is good eaten right away, also. We enjoyed this on lettuce leaves with sliced tomatos, cucumbers, and corn chips.
• NOTES:.
• Add extra time if you need to cook the salmon. I didn't really have leftover salmon, so I poached a chunk in chicken broth and water to cover with added onion, lemon, parsley, dill, bay leaf, thyme, S&P. Was delish, and I used some liquid for ½ the couscous liquid. Saved the rest for another time. However, I am convinced this recipe would still taste delish with plain salmon.
• I imagine most kinds of mustard would be great, except I don't know about yellow?.
• Except the couscous, most measurements are an approximation, so please don't be afraid to change it to fit your tastes.
• I also noticed that the peas lost their bright green color overnight, so for brightest looks, add before serving.
