Buffalo-Glazed Salmon With Blue Cheese Kale Salad

• Buffalo-glazed salmon
• 1 center-cut salmon fillet (about 5 ounces)
• 1 tablespoon your favorite hot sauce, such as Tabasco
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• Freshly cracked black pepper, lots of it
• Blue cheese kale salad
• 1 ounce blue cheese, at room temperature
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon malt vinegar
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pinch celery seed, optional
• Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
• 1 bunch Tuscan kale (also known as lacinato or dinosaur), cut into bite-size pieces

1. For the salmon, whisk together the hot sauce, mayonnaise, sugar, and black pepper and marinate the fillet in this for 10 minutes or so.
2. Heat a nonstick pan and fry the salmon (no oil required, as the mayo will melt into its oily base) for 4 minutes on its first side, then another 2 to 3 minutes on its second side. (Though, it's important to cook your fillet based on its thickness rather than on its weight, which is to say: the thicker the fillet, the longer the cooking time.) Raising the heat to high, add any leftover marinade and let it bubble up into a sticky glaze.
3. Meanwhile, for the salad, whisk together the blue cheese, mayo, vinegar, olive oil, celery seed, salt, and pepper until amalgamated into a dressing. Massage this dressing into the kale. Crack some more black pepper overtop for good measure and enjoy with the salmon.
