SALAD
2 4-ounce pieces California King Salmon
2 teaspoons oil
3 cups mixed salad greens
1½ cups tomato, large dice
½ cup cucumber, sliced
4-5 slices bacon, cooked and roughly chopped

Heat oil in a medium sauté pan. Season salmon with salt and pepper and sear on non-skin side. When golden brown, flip fish and turn down heat. Continue cooking until desired doneness.

DRESSING
2 cups basil, blanched in salted boiling water, chilled and chopped
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil

To make basil puree, place chopped basil in a blender with ½ cup oil and blend until smooth (or finely chop basil and mix with oil by hand). In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons basil puree with remaining ingredients. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

In a large bowl, toss salad greens with vinaigrette and remaining ingredients. Top with California King Salmon and enjoy.
