Honey-Beet Salmon with Beet Stained Apple Matchstick Salad

What to do

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. Place the salmon skin-side down in a baking dish or on a sheet tray and season with salt and black pepper. Mix together the olive oil, honey, beet powder, and mustard powder and spread an even layer over each of the fillets, smothering the entire fillet.
3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until cooked through.
4. Meanwhile, prepare the salad: Combine all of the ingredients for the dressing in a medium bowl. Stir to combine the lemon juice and beet powder in a small bowl and add the cut apple sticks. Toss to distribute and to stain. Add the kale, arugula, persimmon slices and stained apples to the bowl of dressing and gently toss to combine. Grate over the cheese and set aside.
5. When ready to serve, switch to the broiler setting with your oven, or place the baked fish under a broiler for 2 minutes, until the beet marinade is sizzling on top and the fish has seared slightly. Serve with the salad and enjoy!
