Ingredients
Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette:
40ml extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
1/2 tsp chipotle chilli powder
Pinch black pepper
Salmon Bowl:
450g salmon fillets
140g kale
500g cooked brown rice
120g California walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped (plus more for garnish)
400g can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 red or green pepper, diced
1 large avocado, peeled, stoned and cubed
2 large onions, sliced
25g fresh coriander leaves, roughly chopped
Method
Whisk together all vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. (May be prepared several days ahead.)
Cook salmon in a well-oiled frying pan over medium-high heat for 3 - 4 minutes on each side until just cooked throughout. Remove from the pan and remove skin. Let them cool, then cut into 1.5cm pieces.
Mix kale and brown rice together in a large bowl and toss with vinaigrette. Place equal amounts on one side of 6 large salad bowls.
Place equal amounts of walnuts, salmon, black beans, peppers, avocado and onion on the other side of the bowl.
Garnish with coriander and additional walnuts for garnish.
