Salmon Salad
- 1.5 lbs fresh salmon
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1 red pepper, finely diced
- 1/3 cup celery, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, minced
- 8 croissants, sliced in half and lightly toasted
Dressing
- 2 tbsps Greek yogurt, or mayonnaise
- 1.5 tbsps dijon mustard
- 1 garlic clove, grated
- 2 tbsps lemon juice
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400℉ and season the salmon with salt and pepper.
- Place the salmon on a foil-lined baking sheet in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the salmon has reached 145℉. When the salmon is finished cooking, let it cool for 5 minutes before using a spatula to separate the salmon from the skin and transferring it into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Shred the salmon with two forks.
- While the salmon is cooking, prepare the dressing by mixing the Greek yogurt, dijon mustard, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper together in a small mixing bowl.
- Add the diced red onion, red pepper, celery, dill, and dressing to the bowl with the shredded salmon and mix well to combine.
- Place about 1/4 cup of the salmon salad on each croissant half and top with the remaining half and enjoy!
