Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Two 4- to 6-ounce salmon fillets, skin on and at room temperature
Olive oil, for brushing
2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning
1 teaspoon hot honey
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fresh lime or lemon juice
1 teaspoon hot honey
1 teaspoon prepared wasabi
2 handfuls spring mix lettuce blend
1 cup cooked wild rice, at room temperature
3 lemon wedges
3 lime wedges
1 avocado, thinly sliced or chopped
2 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias (both white and green parts)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup chopped fresh mango
4 to 6 paper-thin slices red onion

Steps:

For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil and set aside.
Brush all sides of the fish with the olive oil. Sprinkle the flesh side of the fish with the bagel seasoning and drizzle with the honey. Place the fish on the prepared baking sheet skin-side down. Bake until it flakes easily, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow to come to room temperature.
For the dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, lime juice, honey and wasabi in a small bowl. Set aside.
For the bowl: Just be pretty. Start layering at the bottom of two bowls with the lettuce, then add the rice. Spritz with the juice from a lemon and lime wedge, then continue with the fish fillets in the center of each. Spritz again, then add the avocado, scallions, cilantro, mango and onion around the edges and spritz again with lemon and lime juice. Finally, drizzle with the dressing.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Four 6-ounce skin-on salmon fillet portions, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Zest of 1 lemon plus 8 thin lemon slices, seeds removed
2 tablespoons BBQ, sriracha or everything bagel seasoning
1/2 cup basil pesto, chilled

Steps:

For the salmon: Brush each salmon fillet on the fleshy side with the honey. Coat using the following instructions for one of the following flavors.
For the lemon pepper: Season with a sprinkle of salt, then add plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and top each salmon portion with 2 lemon slices.
For the BBQ, sriracha or everything bagel seasoning: Sprinkle the seasoning evenly on each salmon portion.
For the pesto: Add the pesto on top of the honey and gently spread without pushing the honey over the edge (having the pesto chilled will help here).
Preheat a grill or the oven to 325 to 350 degrees F. Place the salmon on the grill on a piece of aluminum foil or on a pan lined with nonstick aluminum foil on the center rack of the oven. Grill or bake until preferred doneness, 10 to 15 minutes for medium. Remove and rest for a minute or two before serving.
