Health and fertility benefits of Chive Salmon with Remoulade

Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and also one of the best sources of vitamin D. Keeping vitamin D levels up is important to women with PCOS. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Apples will improve your body's sensitivity to insulin (Reference: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/27/1/281.full)

Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon chopped drained capers
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon minced chives
2 Granny Smith apples—peeled and cut into matchsticks
2 celery ribs, sliced diagonally 1/4 inch thick
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Four 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets
8 medium radishes, thinly sliced crosswise

Instructions

In a medium bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the lemon juice, mustard, capers and 1 tablespoon of the chives. Stir in the apples and celery and season the remoulade with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, stir 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into the remaining 1/2 cup of chives. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Press the chive paste onto one side of each salmon fillet.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the fillets, chive-side down, and cook over moderately high heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets and cook for 3 minutes longer. Transfer the fillets to plates. Spoon the remoulade alongside, scatter the radishes on top and serve.
