Instructions
- To make the dressing, place all the dressing ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Season the salmon filets with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the salmon filets and sear for 2 minutes on one side. Turn the filet over and sear for a further minute on the second side.
- Reduce the heat to low, then pour in the broth and the lemon juice. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the juices are nearly absorbed and the fish has cooked, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Place the watercress and pea shoots in a large bowl and drizzle with the dressing. Divide the dressed greens and salmon between 4 plates and serve immediately.
