Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Season the salmon with the paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and cook until opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Step 4
In a bowl, combine the cilantro, scallions, lemon juice, remaining oil, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Drizzle over the salmon and couscous.

Easy and quick dinner idea. I served with a side of sauteed spinach.

This is really quite good...even my 11 year old granddaughter loves it...I triple the vinaigrette recipe or quadruple it...because it complements chicken as well...Has to be used within a day or so, tho....

Restaurant quality! Absolutely delicious and my new favorite way to serve salmon. My only changes were to include the finely grated zest of the lemon and to play with the proportions of the lemon juice and olive oil (I used lots more of both). Oh, and be sure to make extra sauce and couscous. Mix in a plain can of tuna the next day and you've got the best tuna salad you've ever had!

Simple, yet simply delicious! It's so easy but tastes so elegant.
I added a few crimini mushrooms, garlic and parmesan to my whole wheat couscous while cooking. I also used less olive oil then the recipe called for - since the salmon naturally produces such a rich flavor.
I will be adding it to heavy rotation!

Making this for the second time this week because it's REALLY good. It was fast and easy as well. The only thing that holds me up is removing the skin. Seems to take forever no matter which method I use.
