Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 ½ cups dry lentils
  • 1 bouquet garni
  • 10 ounces smoked salmon, or more to taste
  • ½ large red onion, minced
  • 1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Combine water, lentils, and bouquet garni in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until lentils are tender but still firm and there is only a little excess cooking liquid in the pan, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let lentils cool in the pan. Discard bouquet garni.
  • Cut salmon into small strips, no longer than 1/2 inch long. Place in a large bowl with onion and chives. Add cooled lentils.
  • Whisk olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Add to the lentil mixture and stir until well combined. Serve immediately or refrigerate until flavors have blended, 2 to 3 hours.
