Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more
1 15.5-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
1 small bunch mustard greens, ribs and stems removed, leaves coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon honey
4 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets
1/2 small shallot, very finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon honey
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed, patted dry

Steps:

For salmon: Preheat oven to 250°F. Brush a large baking dish with oil. Combine chickpeas, cumin, and 1 tablespoon oil in a medium bowl. Mash about half of chickpeas with a fork; season with salt and pepper. Transfer chickpea mixture to prepared dish. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook garlic, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mustard greens and cook, tossing, until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Add honey and 1/4 cup water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, until greens are completely wilted, about 2 minutes. Transfer to dish with chickpea mixture. Season salmon with salt and pepper; arrange over greens and chickpea mixture and drizzle with oil. Bake until salmon is opaque in the center, 30-35 minutes. For vinaigrette and assembly: Whisk shallot, lemon juice, mustard, and honey in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook capers until opened and crisp, about 30 seconds; drain on paper towels. Drizzle salmon with vinaigrette and top with capers.
