INGREDIENTS
2 portions new potatoes, cubed
1 Tbsp teriyaki marinade
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, minced
2 portions salmon fillets (about 12 oz)
4 cups mixed salad greens
1 Tbsp fresh basil leaves, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh oregano leaves, chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 lemon, halved

DIRECTIONS

  1. Steam cubed new potatoes in a covered saucepan until tender, approximately 20 minutes.
  2. While potatoes are cooking, mix teriyaki marinade, garlic and parsley in a small bowl.
  3. Preheat broiler. Lightly coat a broiler pan with cooking spray. Place salmon fillets on the pan, skin-side down, and brush with teriyaki marinade.
  4. Broil salmon approximately 6 inches from the broiler until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  5. While salmon is cooking, combine salad greens, basil, oregano, olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a medium bowl and toss.
  6. Divide tossed salad between two separate plates. Layer portions of potatoes and broiled salmon fillets over salad greens.
  7. Top salmon and salad with a squeeze of fresh lemon and freshly ground black pepper, serve and enjoy!
