Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets
- 2 Tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 Tablespoon teriyaki sauce
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 ½ cup salad greens
- ½ cup Grape tomatoes (halved)
- ½ cup feta cheese (crumbled)

- 2 Tablespoons pine nuts

Salad dressing
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- ⅛ Teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce and ground coriander. Coat the salmon fillets with the marinade and let them sit for 10 minutes.
- Heat an electric grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the salmon for about 3 to 4 minutes per side or until cooked through.
- Arrange the salad greens on a plate. Add the grilled salmon fillets, diced avocado, and halved tomatoes.
- Sprinkle salad with crumbled feta cheese and pine nuts.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper and salt.
- Drizzle salad with the dressing, garnish with fresh cilantro, and enjoy!
Notes
- Don’t Overcook the Salmon. Grill it just until flaky for the best texture. Internal temperature should be 145°F
- You can use lettuce instead of store bought salad greens.
- Toast the Pine Nuts. A quick toast brings out their flavor.
