Warm salad of chargrilled courgettes & salmon
A warm salad with crisp green leaves to serve on a balmy August evening
Difficulty and servings
Easily doubled
Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 20 - 30 minutes
- Make the dressing. Measure the ingredients into a jug or screwtopped jar, season to taste, then whisk or shake to mix. Set aside.
- Now mix the olive oil, lemon juice, herbs and garlic in a bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the courgette halves in this marinade until they're thoroughly coated.
- Heat a ridged griddle pan until very hot but not smoking, or use a good non-stick frying pan instead (but you won't get attractive dark stripes). Sear the courgettes in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side until just softened, with dark stripes. Remove and set aside.
- Put the strips of salmon into the remaining marinade in the dish and toss to coat, then chargrill on the griddle pan for 1-2 minutes on each side until just cooked through.
- To serve, divide the salad leaves between two plates and lay the courgettes and salmon on top. Re-whisk the dressing and drizzle it over everything. Serve at once.
