Step 1
Set the chile butter on the counter and let it start to come to room temperature. Quarter and slice 1 or 2 radishes. Place the radish slices in a large bowl, drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
Step 2
In a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. Add 1 cup of the quinoa, season generously with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until very crunchy, 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
Step 3
Meanwhile, remove the salmon from the packaging, cut it into 3 pieces, pat dry with paper towels, and season on both sides with salt.
Step 4
Wipe out the frying pan, return it to medium-high heat, and warm 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the salmon, skin-side down, and cook until the skin is crispy and the flesh is mostly cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes, depending on thickness. Flip and continue cooking until nearly firm or done to your liking, 30 seconds longer for medium-well. Transfer the salmon to plates and spread with the chile butter.
Step 5
Add the crispy quinoa and greens to the radish slices, drizzle with about ¼ cup of the vinaigrette, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Heap the salad alongside the salmon and serve warm, with the lemon wedges for squeezing.
Contains: milk, fish.
Note: The salmon may arrive frozen for freshness. Store it in the refrigerator to defrost before cooking. If you need to defrost it same day, place the sealed package in a bowl of cold water, and leave the tap running in a thin stream for about 30 minutes.
