Looking for a tasty and healthy sandwich recipe? This crispy salmon sandwich is perfect for you! Made with fresh ingredients and packed with flavors, it's an easy and delicious meal that will become a favorite.
In a sauté pan, heat the extra virgin olive oil and sauté the diced red onion, mini bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper. When the veggies start to become soft, add 1/4 cup of water and set the pan aside on low heat.
Prepare the Salmon
Cut the salmon fillet into bite-sized cubes. Season the salmon cubes with salt, pepper, and extra virgin oil. Heat a pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Place the salmon cubes in the pan, cooking each side for about 2 minutes, or until the salmon is crispy and cooked through.
Prepare the Greens
In a large bowl, combine the spinach and arugula mix. Drizzle with lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss well to coat the greens evenly.
Prepare the Spread
In a small bowl, mix together the whole grain mustard and mayonnaise until well combined.
Prepare the bread
Cut the bread rolls in half, spread salted butter on them, and toast them in the skillet until golden brown and crispy.
Assemble the Sandwich
Spread a generous amount of the spread on both halves of the toasted rolls. Put relish on the bottom half of the rolls, followed by the crispy salmon. On the other half of the rolls, top with greens, and then cover with the other half.
Serve and Enjoy
Serve the crispy salmon sandwiches immediately while the ingredients are fresh and vibrant.

Notes
Choose Fresh Salmon: The quality of your salmon makes a big difference. Look for fresh, wild-caught salmon for the best flavor and texture.
Customize Your Relish: Feel free to get creative with the relish. Adding ingredients like capers, olives, or even a splash of balsamic vinegar can add a unique twist to your sandwich.
Toast the Bread Just Right: A perfectly toasted roll adds a delightful crunch to your sandwich. Make sure to toast until golden brown and crispy but not burnt.
Don’t Overcook the Salmon: Keep an eye on your salmon while it bakes. Overcooking can make it dry. You want it to be moist and flaky.
Add a Creamy Element: If you like a creamier texture, consider adding a slice of avocado or a smear of cream cheese along with the mustard-mayo spread.
