Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound skinless salmon fillets
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1 pound green beans, stem ends trimmed, cut into 2-inch lengths
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 English cucumber, peeled and cut (about 2 cups)
4 to 6 radishes, halved and thinly sliced crosswise (1 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. Place salmon on a rimmed baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper; rub with 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Broil, 4 inches from heat source, until fillets are opaque throughout, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, cook green beans in a medium pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes; drain, and let cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil, lime juice, and cilantro; season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Add green beans, cucumber, and radishes. With a fork, break salmon into large chunks. Add to salad; toss gently. Serve immediately.
