Receta Grilled Sockeye Salmon over Israeli Couscous with a Yogurt, Lemon, Chive Sauce, Mozzarella and Tomato Salad with a Beet Vinaigrette and Fresh Garden Greens, Radish, and Scallion
Add a photoSometimes we do not have a ton of time to cook and having containers of fresh greens, herbs, and vegetables around the yard really is a time and money saver. Also having the freezer and refrigerator holding other ingredients from previously butchered fish or chicken and mother batches of tomatoes, chilies, poached garlic and, in this case roasted beets, allows a quick meal without a journey to the grocery store when time is of the essence

Direcciones
- 1. Prepare the couscous as per container directions with just a little butter and salt. Takes about 8 minutes. Turn off heat and set aside for plating.
- 2. For the roasted beet vinaigrette place the beet, 1 tsp. of the lemon juice, 1 tbsp. olive oil, basil, garlic, scallion leaf, pinch of salt and black pepper into the food processor and puree. Set aside.
- 3. In a small bowl place the yogurt, 1 tsp. lemon juice, chipotle, a pinch of salt and black pepper and whip together until blended. Hold in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- 4. Assemble the salad portion of the plate with the greens, radish, scallion, mozzarella, and tomatoes. Drizzle ½ tbsp. olive oil over the greens and a little lemon juice. Add the beet vinaigrette over the cheese and tomatoes.
- 5. Bring a sauté pan, I prefer cast iron, to medium high and when at temperature add a little peanut or olive oil to the pan. Coat both sides of the fish fillets with seasoning and place the presentation side down into the pan and move slightly to be sure the season does not stick to the pan. Sauté until fish is about 1/3 cooked, about two to three minutes, flip for another one minute or so and then remove to rest for one or two minutes on the plate.
- 6. Add the yogurt sauce and serve
