Spiced Dijon Salmon
Source: HelloFresh
Summer may be winding down, but we’re not quite ready for fall just yet. To that end, we’ve got a recipe that’s a little bit of fun in the sun and a little bit of autumnal adventure. On the brighter side are sustainable salmon fillets from Blue Circle Foods, which are drizzled in a cheerful lemon sauce. Meanwhile, ingredients like apple, pecan, and the full-bodied spices in our Turkish blend take it toward the deeper flavor profile associated with changing leaves and sweater weather.

Method
- Bring 1 cup water, stock concentrate, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a small pot. Once boiling, add couscous. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand until the rest of the meal is ready.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat (use a nonstick pan if you have one). Pat salmon dry with a paper towel. Season all over with salt, pepper, and Turkish spice. Add to pan skin-side down. Cook to desired doneness, 3-6 minutes per side.
- Wash and dry all produce. Cut lemon into halves. Halve and core apple, then thinly slice.
- Place brown sugar in a medium bowl. Squeeze in juice from one lemon half and stir to dissolve sugar. Add mustard and sour cream and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place arugula, apple, and pecans in a large bowl. Add a big squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fluff couscous with a fork, then season with salt and pepper. Divide couscous between plates, then top with salmon. Drizzle with sauce. Serve with salad on the side.
