Preparation
- Step 1
Trim the hard bottoms from the endives and remove the leaves. Arrange eight leaves on each of six plates with the bottoms at the center and the tops forming a fan pattern. Leave room between each leaf.
- Step 2
Distribute the red-leaf lettuce over each of the plates between the endive leaves. Place a clump of arugula at the center of the fan pattern.
- Step 3
Cut each salmon fillet into thirds lengthwise. Then cut each strip on the bias into two-inch-long pieces.
- Step 4
Heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan. Put the salmon in the pan and sprinkle with pepper. Cook briefly. Add the scallions, shallots and ginger. Saute the salmon for one minute on each side. Add the vinegar and soy sauce and then the white wine. Blend well. Remove from the heat.
- Step 5
Place the salmon strips over the salad. Evenly distribute the sauce over the salmon and greens. Garnish each plate with a tablespoon of chopped dill and a teaspoon of caviar, if desired.

Didn't have red-leaf lettuce, scallions, or caviar; substituted ginger powder for fresh and dried dill for fresh. Still really delicious and very quick! I'd salt the fish next time along with the pepper. Would be nice to have more guidance on "cook briefly" but I did just under 3 mins total of farmed salmon and it's tender. Yum!
