Broiled Salmon with Watercress & Apple Salad

1. Set your oven to 400F.
2. Wash your watercress in a salad spinner.
3. Pat dry your salmon and season with salt, pepper, smoky honey habanero rub, and EVOO. Lay the salmon skin side down on a baking sheet.
4. Roast the salmon until its internal temperature reaches 120F or it's just flakey, about 8-12 minutes. The author prefers it medium, noting carryover cooking is important.
5. Chop up your salad ingredients (watercress, red onion, honeycrisp apple, grape tomato, Parmesan cheese) as well as the vinaigrette ingredients (lemon juice and zest, whole grain mustard, pineapple vinegar, grated garlic, chopped Calabrian chili, salt, pepper, oregano, EVOO).
6. Combine the vinaigrette ingredients and shake well to emulsify.
7. Serve the broiled salmon with the watercress salad and dressing.
