Ginger-Dill Salmon

Ingredients
  

  • 1-½ pounds salmon fillet, skin-on or skinless 
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 6 tbsp. dill, finely chopped
  • 2-inch piece ginger, unpeeled, scrubbed and finely grated
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
  • 1 grapefruit
  • 2 oranges
  • 6 small radishes, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 avocado 
  • Flaky sea salt, to taste, for finishing, optional

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 325°F.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Pat the salmon dry; place on the tray, skin-side down, if there is skin, and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the dill, ginger and olive oil until combined; season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread half of the dill-ginger mixture over the top of the salmon; reserve the remaining dill-ginger mixture.
  • Place in the pre-heated oven and bake until cooked through; 15 to 20 minutes; the salmon is done when the fish flakes or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part is 120°F.
  • As the salmon cooks, cut off the top and bottom of the grapefruit and set the grapefruit down on one of the cut sides.
  • Follow the curve of the fruit to cut away the peel and pith.
  • Squeeze the peels into the remaining dill-ginger mixture to get out any juice.
  • Cut the fruit in half, from top to bottom; slice into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons and remove the seeds; if pieces are especially large, halve them again.
  • Transfer the fruit and any juice on the cutting board to the bowl.
  • Repeat with the oranges.
  • Add the radishes, season generously with salt and stir gently to combine.
  • Peel and pit the avocado; quarter lengthwise; set aside.
  • Break the salmon into large pieces and divide across plates with the citrus salad; add the avocado to plates; season with salt.
  • Spoon the juices from the bowl over top and season with black pepper, another drizzle of olive oil and flaky sea salt, if using.
