Gluten-Free Roasted Salmon and Lentil Salad with Mustard Vinaigrette Recipe

When the fish comes out of the oven, it might not seem done, but it’ll continue to cook to medium-rare as it cools. If you prefer your fish cooked more, roast it for 10 to 12 minutes total.

Ingredients

For the Lentils:

  • 1/2 cup green, black, or brown lentils
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

For the Vinaigrette:

  • 1/2 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free Dijon mustard
  • 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

For the Salad:

  • 4 (4-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4 cups loosely packed baby lettuces
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/8 cup small tarragon leaves
  • 2 large or 3 small radishes, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Make the lentils: In a small saucepan, combine the lentils, salt, bay leaf, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Turn off the heat, cover, and let rest for 5 minutes. Discard the bay leaf. Drain the lentils, spread on a plate to cool, and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk with the vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons water. Whisk in the olive oil.
  • Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Season each salmon fillet with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and place on the prepared baking sheet. Roast until opaque on the outside and just beginning to flake at the edges with a center that is springy to the touch, 7 to 8 minutes. Immediately transfer the fillets to a plate to cool. When cool enough to handle, remove and discard the skin from each fillet and break the fish into large chunks.
  • In a large bowl, combine the lettuces with two pinches of salt, the olive oil, and the lemon juice and toss.
  • To serve, divide the lentils among four plates. Top with lettuces and salmon chunks. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the vinaigrette over each salad, sprinkle with tarragon leaves and radishes, season to taste with salt, and serve.

Servings 4
Calories 568kcal
Author Erika Lenkert

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 4 4-ounce salmon fillets
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free tamari
  • 2/3 cup canola oil
  • 16 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 tablespoon minced red onion (optional)
  • 2 loosely packed cups baby spinach or arugula
  • 1/2 English cucumber, chopped

Instructions

  • In a pot with a lid, bring 2 cups water to a boil over high heat. Add the quinoa, turn the heat to low, and simmer, covered, until all of the liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork and let cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Season each salmon fillet with 1/4 teaspoon salt and place them 1 inch apart, skin-side down, on the baking sheet. Roast for 7 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Immediately transfer to a plate to cool (they will continue cooking a bit).
  • In a blender, blend the sunflower seeds and vinegar until smooth. Add the tamari and oil and blend to combine.
  • In a salad bowl, toss together the quinoa, tomatoes, onion, spinach, cucumber, and dressing. Divide among four dinner plates, top with the salmon, add a sprinkle of pepper, and serve.

Slow roasting salmon gives the fish a rich, elegant flavor and makes it harder to overcook. Vibrant veggies in a tangy champagne vinegar dressing complete this weeknight standby. But the best thing about this gluten-free roasted salmon recipe is the resulting texture you'll get from the salmon--cooked yet soft and fancy-restaurant-like!
Servings 2 people

Ingredients

  • 2 6-ounce thick salmon fillets
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1⁄2 cups green beans trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon champagne vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon minced shallot
  • 20 cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 275°F. Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish, skin side down, so the fillets are not touching. Season the fillets with salt and pepper, pour 2 tablespoons of the oil over the fish, add 2 tablespoons of water to the dish, and bake until the fillets are still bright in color and appear medium-rare and slightly undercooked when gently prodded, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add the green beans, and cook until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the vinegar, shallot, tomatoes, and 1⁄2 teaspoon salt until well combined. In a small skillet, simmer the tomato mixture and the green beans for 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley and remove from the heat.
  • Place each fillet on a dinner plate. Spoon half of the tomato mixture over each fillet and serve
