Step 1
Season the 2 salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Cook the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, until it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the 4 cups romaine lettuce, 1 cup shredded carrots, and 1 cup shredded purple cabbage.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk the juice of 1 lime with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 5
Flake the salmon into large chunks and add to the salad. Drizzle with the lime dressing and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
