Snap peas work wonders for this fresh salad, providing crunch and color, while the orange zest adds bite. For maximum flavor, use big zest strips, taken from a navel orange free of spots.
Ingredients
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. skinless salmon fillet
Kosher salt and pepper
1 c. couscous
1 small orange
1/4 c. snap peas
1/2 small red onion
1 c. fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 c. fresh mint
Instructions
Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon with 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper, and cook until opaque throughout, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate; refrigerate until cool, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the couscous in a large bowl. Add 1 cup hot tap water, cover and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
Using a vegetable peeler, remove 3 strips of zest from the orange. Thinly slice the zest and add it to the couscous along with the snap peas, onion, parsley, mint, remaining Tbsp oil, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Squeeze in 2 Tbsp orange juice and toss to combine.
Using a fork, flake the salmon into large pieces. Gently fold the salmon into the couscous.
