Herb crusted Salmon with green goddess salad!

Let me share with you the most delicious recipe for salad dressing. I found it in Palthrow's book, Its All Good, yet I modified it slightly so I take no credit for it. Its called Green Goddess Dressing. Maybe I should rename my version to Green Queen Goddess Dressing? Anyhow, just try it. I served herb crusted salmon with goddess salad last night. Fantastic if I may say so.

Herb Crusted Salmon with Goddess Salad

Serves 4 

Ingredients

For the Salmon:

4 Thin Salmon Fillets (organic)

3 Tbs Rapeseed Oil

4 Tbs Herbs de Provence/ Favorite herb mix.( I love the Dean & Deluca Herbs for fish)

Green Salad

1 Large head of Romaine Salad

6 Sun dried Tomatoes

1 Avocado

1/2 Cucumber (peeled)

Green Queen Goddess Dressing

1 handful basil leaves (fresh) 

2 Spring onions

5 Stems of Fresh Coriander

5 Stems of Fresh Parsley

Leaves from 1 Spring of Fresh Tarragon 

Handful fresh Kale

1 Ripe Avocado

1/4 Cup Veganaise (egg free mayo)

1 1/2 Tbs Raw Honey

Juice from 1 large lemon

2 Tbs White Wine Vinegar (can be substituted for Apple Cider Vinegar)

2 Tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1/4 Cup Filtered Water

Pinch of Maldon Salt & Ground pepper

Method 

Pre heat your oven to 200 C and place the Salmon in an oven proof dish and drizzle over the fillets. Pinch the herbs across the top of the fish and drizzle the rest of the oil over the herbs. Set aside and place in oven when it is at the right temperature. Do not add any salt. 

Chop the romaine, tomatoes, avocado and cucumber into cubes. Toss it together in a large bowl. 

Put the salmon in the oven for 15 mins. 

For the dressing add all the ingredients to a Vitamix or alternative powerful blender. Blend till smooth. 

Add 3 - 4 Tbs of dressing to the salad and toss frequently making the whole salad coated. Serve immediately with the salmon. 

Trust me this is delicious and the dressing will pump up any boring salad you have. 

Enjoy!
