Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces salmon fillet, skin removed
8 ounces soba noodles or other flavored pasta
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons minced chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups watercress

Steps:

  • In a straight-sided skillet over medium-low heat, bring 2 inches of water and a pinch of salt to a boil. Gently place salmon in water. Poach at a low simmer until cooked through, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove and let cool; flake into large pieces.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add soba and cook until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
