Ingredients

  • 1 medium-sized red onion, thinly sliced in half rings
  • 1⁄4 cup Regina red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1-1⁄2 pounds salmon fillet, cut crosswise in 4 portions
  • 6 cups lettuce leaves in bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. In a microwaveable cup, combine onion, red wine vinegar, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of
    salt and 1/8 teaspoon of pepper; cover loosely with plastic wrap; microwave on high power for 1 minute.
  2. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until onions turn pink, about 15 minutes.
