Ingredients:
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, seasoned with
salt and pepper
7 ounces couscous
1/2 lemons, juice of
1/2 limes, juice of
7 ounces water ( or stock)
12 ounces apple cider ( or juice)
6 ounces apple cider vinegar
6 ounces canola oil
1/2 lemons, juice of
1/2 limes, juice of
3 ounces finely diced onions
1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
fresh mixed herbs ( Chef White likes to use chives, thyme, tarragon, dill weed and parsley)
1 red apples, sliced for garnish
1 green apples, sliced for garnish
Directions:
Blend all ingredients together in the poaching liquid. It’s best to do this the day before so that the flavors develop. The poaching liquid will last up to a week in the refrigerator.
Prepare the couscous in advance using the water or stock along with the lemon and lime juices instead of the plain water that’s called for on the package instructions.
Sear the salmon in a really hot oven proof skillet. Add 6 oz. of the prepared vinaigrette and cook in a 400 F oven for 8-10 minutes. Bring remaining vinaigrette to a boil along with apple slices.
Serve the salmon on top of the couscous. Spoon additional vinaigrette with apple slices over the top. Garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
