Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 ounces smoked salmon
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/2 cup radishes, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Gather 4 ounces of smoked salmon, 1 ripe avocado, 1/2 cup of radishes, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and the juice of 1 lemon. Make sure you have salt and pepper on hand for seasoning.
- Slice the radishes thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline for even thickness. Place the sliced radishes in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into small cubes and add them to the bowl with the radishes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and the juice of 1 lemon. This will create a simple dressing for your salad.
- Pour the dressing over the avocado and radish mixture. Gently toss everything together, being careful not to mash the avocado. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- On a serving plate, arrange the smoked salmon. You can either lay it flat or create small folds for an elegant presentation.
- Once the salad is well mixed, spoon it alongside the smoked salmon on the plate. Ensure that each serving has a good portion of both the salad and the salmon.
- For an extra touch, you can garnish the dish with additional lemon wedges or a sprinkle of fresh herbs, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Ten Minute Smoked Salmon with Avocado Radish Salad!
Tips
- Choose Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality smoked salmon and ripe avocados. The freshness of your ingredients can make a significant difference in this simple dish.
- Prep Ahead: If you're short on time, you can slice the radishes and dice the avocado in advance. Just be sure to toss the avocado in a little lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Customize the Salad: Feel free to add other ingredients to the salad, such as cucumber, cherry tomatoes, or even a sprinkle of feta cheese for added flavor and texture.
- Presentation Matters: Take a moment to arrange the smoked salmon and salad artfully on the plate. A beautiful presentation can elevate the dining experience and impress your guests.
- Experiment with Dressings: While the olive oil and lemon juice dressing is simple and delicious, you can experiment with different dressings like a light vinaigrette or a yogurt-based dressing for a unique twist.
- Serve Immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh, so serve it right after preparing to maintain the vibrant colors and textures of the ingredients.
