1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

1-2 teaspoons lemon zest

freshly ground pepper

1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion

2 tablespoons water

oven

baking sheet

spatula

frying pan

tongs

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Place salmon on a foil-lined baking sheet. (If the salmon has its skin on, you will not need to grease the foil, and you can easily slide a spatula between the meat and skin when the salmon is done cooking, leaving the skin behind. If the skin has already been removed, spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle salmon with lemon zest, salt and pepper. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until just opaque in the center. Meanwhile, place cranberries in a small bowl and cover with hot water. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions with a splash of water, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the kale (a few handfuls at a time if it doesn't all fit) and cook, turning with tongs, for about 10 minutes, or until all the kale is wilted. Season with a pinch of salt. Stir together tahini, lemon juice and water, and add freshly ground pepper to taste. Pour the tahini sauce over the kale. Drain the cranberries and add to the pan. Stir until everything is coated and heated through. Plate the salmon with the warm kale, and serve immediately.
