Poached Salmon with Asparagus, Herbs, and Baby Greens

  1. Fill a saucepan wide enough to hold salmon with 2 to 3 inches cold water.
  2. Stir in 1/3 cup lemon juice and 2 teaspoons salt.
  3. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer and gently place salmon in pan, skin side down.
  4. Reduce heat and cook at a bare simmer until salmon is just opaque throughout, 10 to 12 minutes.
  5. Transfer to a plate.
  6. Cover loosely with a piece of parchment paper to prevent surface from drying, and let cool 20 to 30 minutes.
  7. Once cool, salmon can be refrigerated, covered tightly with plastic wrap, for up to 2 days.
  8. Bring a pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice-water bath.
  9. Blanch asparagus until crisp-tender and color brightens, 45 to 60 seconds.
  10. With a slotted spoon, immediately transfer asparagus to ice-water bath to stop the cooking; once cool, drain and pat dry with paper towels.
  11. Combine shallot, lemon and orange zests, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the orange juice, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
  12. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until emulsified.
  13. Assemble asparagus, greens, herbs, radishes, and eggs on a platter.
  14. Break salmon into large pieces, arrange on top, and drizzle with vinaigrette.
  15. Serve immediately.
