Salmon Lettuce Wraps with Lemon-Dijon Dressing
4 servings
45 minutes total

Ingredients

  • Nonstick aluminum foil
  • 1 tablespoon + ½ teaspoon ground coriander, divided
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Cooking spray
  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin removed (about 1 ½ lb)
  • 3 tablespoons hulled hemp seeds (or quinoa)
  • 1 package green leaf (or romaine) lettuce (7–8 oz)
  • 1 hothouse cucumber
  • 2 ripe Hass avocado
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • ½ cup lemon vinaigrette
  • ¼ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 cups matchstick carrots

Steps

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with foil. Combine salt and 1 tablespoon coriander on small plate.
    2. Coat salmon with spray, press both sides of each fillet into spice mixture, and arrange on baking sheet (wash hands). Bake 8–10 minutes until centers of fillets flake easily and are 145°F. Chill if desired.
    3. Place hemp seeds in small, nonstick sauté pan, coat with spray, and cook on medium-low 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and toasted. Remove from pan and let stand to cool (seeds will crisp as they stand).
    4. Meanwhile, separate lettuce leaves. Cut cucumber into fourths crosswise, then lengthwise into matchsticks. Halve avocados and remove pits; scoop out flesh and slice into thin strips. Chop dill finely.
    5. Combine vinaigrette, dill, yogurt, mustard, and remaining ½ teaspoon coriander. Arrange piles of lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, and avocado slices on each plate. Add salmon to each plate; top salmon with hemp seeds and add side of dressing. Build each lettuce wrap and serve.

    Chef's Tip: To use quinoa in place of hemp, you'll need to rinse and dry thoroughly before cooking. Quinoa will take 10–15 minutes until it starts to puff and pop, just like popcorn.

Always check fish for bones.

Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with soap and water after any contact with raw meat, seafood, or eggs.
Do not reuse marinades.
Do not rinse raw meat.

If fruits and vegetables are part of this recipe, be sure to wash thoroughly.
