Make

  1. Preheat oven to 400F (204C) degrees.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbs. cooking oil and then green onions to heated oil with some salt. Saute until softened, ~3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
  3. Return skillet to heat and add remaining cooking oil to pan. Tilt to cover and then add salmon to heated oil, presentation side down. Sear for 3 minutes and then flip. Transfer to oven and cook for another 6 to 12 minutes depending on width (Our rule of thumb is about 5 minutes / half inch (1.25 cm)).
  4. While salmon is cooking, heat a saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tsp. (30ml) of oil and then sugar snap peas to heated oil with some salt. Saute for 3 to 5 minutes, until softened but crunchy.
  5. Whisk cooked onions with vinegars and olive oil. Season to taste with salt & pepper.
  6. Enjoy salmon drizzled with vinaigrette.
