The dressing keeps well tightly sealed in the refrigerator for about 5 – 7 days.

4 4 ounce salmon filets
1/4 tsp salt
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
spray olive oil
2 cloves garlic (minced)
2 anchovy filets
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp honey
1 1/2 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated)
1/2 cup non-fat yogurt
2 heads romaine lettuce
1 cup reduced-fat croutons

Preheat oven to 375°F. Place a large non-stick skillet in the oven while it preheats.

Sprinkle the salt over the salmon filets. Grind pepper over the salmon.

When the pan is hot place the filets in the oven seasoned side down and return to the preheated oven. Cook for about 6 minutes and turn. Cook for 4 – 10 minutes more to the desired temperature (4 or 5 minutes for medium rare). Remove from the oven and place on a cutting board or plate. After the salmon has cooled cover and place in the refrigerator.

Place the garlic, anchovies, pepper, lemon juice, mustard, honey, parmesan cheese and yogurt in a blender and process until smooth.

Chill for at least 2 hours.

Rinse the lettuce, drain and spin dry. Cut crosswise and place in refrigerator until needed.

Toss together with the romaine lettuce and croutons. Divide the salad and croutons between 4 plates and top each with a chilled salmon filet.
