    Caesar-Cobb Salad with Crispy Pan Seared Salmon

    Crispy Pan Seared Salmon on top of a fresh Caesar salad in a bowl


    Salmon Caesar Salad Recipe

    Salmon Caesar Salad? Yes, please. This unique hybrid salad combines the styles of Caesar (anchovies, parmesan cheese, and homemade dressing) with Cobb (bacon, avocado, and hard boiled eggs). Topping it off in majestic fashion is a caramelized pan seared Naked Norwegian Salmon portion, PACKED with healthy omega 3 fatty acids, which give it an incredible flavor profile and melt in your mouth texture.

    This recipe is simple, healthy, and most importantly... DELICIOUS. Fresh ingredients with high quality salmon - how can you go wrong?

    The KEY here, as with any seafood dish, is in the quality of the fish or shellfish you are cooking with.

    My preference is always Naked Norwegian Salmon. They come in individually wrapped 5 oz. skinless portions, 3 per bag. They are flash frozen within hours of harvest, so they are fresher than fresh once you thaw them out in your kitchen!
