Perfect Poached Salmon, Peaches, and Arugula Salad

Ginger Peach Salmon Salad

This healthy salad combines protein and fatty acids from salmon as well as the bitterness of arugula (great for detox), and the sweetness of peaches. Plus poaching the salmon in tea lends it a delicious flavor and keeps the salmon so moist. Yum!

1 tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
2 green onions
1 cup Bigelow Ginger Peach Turmeric Tea concentrate
4 skin-on salmon fillets
Sea salt and pepper to taste
