Grilled Salmon With Greens
- Cooking spray
- 4 (4-ounce) salmon fillets
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 (6-inch) whole-wheat pitas
- 8 ounces mixed salad greens
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled goat cheese
- Vinaigrette:
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Coat the grill with cooking spray, and heat to medium-high. Sprinkle salmon fillets with salt and pepper, and grill 4 minutes on each side (skin side up first) or just until done. Remove skin; transfer fillets to a plate.
- Grill pitas for about 45 seconds per side, or until lightly browned. Cut each into 4 wedges.
- Divide salad among 4 plates, and top with goat cheese and salmon. Whisk vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl, and drizzle over greens. Top each salad with 2 pita crisps.
- Wine note: The tangy goat cheese and smoky salmon in the salad echo the contrasting lime fruit and rich oakiness of a California Fume Blanc. Look for the vibrant, melony-tasting Chateau St. Jean, around $
