Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets
• 2 lemons, juiced
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 6 cups mixed greens
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
• For the citrus vinaigrette:
• 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. In a shallow dish, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper. Place the salmon fillets in the marinade and let them sit for 15 minutes.
2. Preheat the grill to medium heat. Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and place them on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
3. While the salmon is grilling, prepare the citrus vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
4. In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, sliced almonds, and crumbled feta cheese. Toss with the citrus vinaigrette until well coated.
5. To serve, divide the salad mixture among plates and top each portion with a grilled salmon fillet. Garnish with additional fresh herbs, if desired.
6. Enjoy this delicious Cielo's Spring Salmon with your loved ones!
