SALMON AND COUSCOUS SALAD WITH CUCUMBER-FETA DRESSING
The dressing in this 30-minute recipe is inspired by green goddess dressing and mast-o khiar, a Persian side dish of cucumbers and yogurt. Here, thick yogurt is combined with fresh herbs, tangy feta and crunchy Persian cucumbers. If you have trouble finding Persian cucumbers, they can be swapped for similarly sweet-skinned English cucumbers or peeled regular cucumbers. Flaking the salmon into the salad evenly distributes it and is a nice alternative to serving a fillet for dinner. Leftover salad can be enjoyed cold for lunch the next day, freshened up with a squeeze of lime juice and more fresh herbs.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In the center of a sheet pan, place salmon skin-side down. Pat the salmon dry, then coat with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, 1/2 teaspoon cumin and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric. Coat 1 of the lime halves in some of the olive oil in the pan, then place cut-side up in the corner.
- Roast the salmon on the center rack until opaque on the outside and light pink in the center, about 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- While the salmon roasts, make the couscous: In a lidded pot over medium-high heat, toast the couscous, uncovered, stirring until fragrant, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add 3 cups water, season with salt, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain an active simmer, then cook until the couscous is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the couscous in a colander, then drizzle with olive oil, tossing to coat. Stir in the arugula, letting it wilt. Leave in the sink to cool slightly while you make the dressing.
- Prepare the dressing: In a serving bowl, combine the yogurt with 1/4 cup room temperature water and the zest and juice of 1 lime, then whisk until smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin, plus 1/4 cup feta, most of the herbs (reserving some for garnish) and the cucumber. Stir to combine, then season to taste with salt. Set aside.
- Add the cooked couscous and arugula to the yogurt mixture, tossing to combine. Remove the salmon from the skin, then flake with a fork. Add half the salmon to the couscous, mixing it together. Place the remaining salmon on top, squeeze the roasted lime half over the dish, then garnish with the scallions, remaining feta, parsley and mint. Quarter the remaining lime half and serve it on the side.
FETA SALMON SALAD
My son David always ordered the satisfying salmon sandwich at a local pub. In trying to replicate it, he came up with this salmon salad. It's the only recipe he's ever made and our entire family thinks it's great. -susan griffiths, Mount Pleasnt, South Carolina

Steps:
- For the couscous: Combine the couscous, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper in a large heatproof bowl and stir well to combine. Pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water over the couscous and immediately cover tightly with plastic wrap. After 10 minutes, uncover, fluff well with a fork and stir in the pistachios, mint and scallions.
- For the zucchini noodle salad: Meanwhile, put the zucchini noodles in a colander set over a bowl and toss well with 1 teaspoon salt. Let sit until the zucchini has softened and purged some moisture, about 5 minutes. Press well to expel any extra moisture and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the tomatoes, feta, corn, basil, olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
- For the salmon: Put the salmon on a microwave-safe plate, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Spread with the chile spread and cover with another microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes depending on your microwave.
SALMON COUSCOUS SALAD
Hot nights are inspiring cool, healthy salads! Just made this last night, and it was so pretty and so delicious I think I'll take it to my next potluck. This is sort of a different version of my Big Hit Couscous Salad (#175176), but much easier - much less prep - esp. if you have most ingredients on hand. I used frozen veggies. Prep time does not include optional chill time.

Steps:
- Boil the water and olive oil. When boiling, remove from heat, stir in the couscous, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork into a large bowl to cool.
- Flake the salmon and add to the bowl.
- Briefly steam the peas, rinse in cold water and add, then do the same for the corn.
- Add the onion, parsley and dill.
- Mix a bit of the dressing into the mustard to combine, then add the rest of the dressing and lemon juice.
- Sprinkle over the couscous, mixingly. (You know what I mean.) Taste to see if there's enough mustard and lemon for your taste. Mustard can be added thinned with liquid, such as more dressing, lemon juice, or water. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
- Chill for at least 2 hours if you have time, but it is good eaten right away, also. We enjoyed this on lettuce leaves with sliced tomatos, cucumbers, and corn chips.
- NOTES:.
- Add extra time if you need to cook the salmon. I didn't really have leftover salmon, so I poached a chunk in chicken broth and water to cover with added onion, lemon, parsley, dill, bay leaf, thyme, S&P. Was delish, and I used some liquid for ½ the couscous liquid. Saved the rest for another time. However, I am convinced this recipe would still taste delish with plain salmon.
- I imagine most kinds of mustard would be great, except I don't know about yellow?.
- Except the couscous, most measurements are an approximation, so please don't be afraid to change it to fit your tastes.
- I also noticed that the peas lost their bright green color overnight, so for brightest looks, add before serving.
