This recipe inspiration goes to Elise at http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/pan_seared_salmon_with_avocado_remoulade/. I just loved the idea of the remoulade and gosh it was creamy and absolutely a knock out sauce. Plus, this dish healthy and loaded with all the good kind of fats and proteins. And oodles of flavor. (Yes, I used oodles. That’s how much I loved this dish. Loove)
Here is the recipe for the remoulade taken from Elise below. As for the salmon, I seared it skin side down on the pan for 2-3 minutes until crispy. Then I flipped the salmon and put it in the oven for 11-12 minutes at 400F. Cooked perfect flaky and a little under. On the side, I sautéed some garlic and spinach until the leaves wilted (salt and pepper to taste) and poached an egg. Why poached egg? Umm why not poached egg? Hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Thanks Elise for a great sauce recipe!

How to?
