Smoked Salmon and Avocado Tier
Layers of silky smoked salmon and creamy avocado stacked into an elegant tier, finished with a hint of lemon and fresh herbs. This refined appetizer delivers a rich, buttery texture with bright, refreshing flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package pre-chopped smoked salmon
- kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- prepared champagne vinaigrette
- croutons
- 3 ripe avocados, thinly sliced
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- pinch prepared wasabi
- fresh chives, cut into small pieces, for garnish
Directions
- Place a 3-inch ring mold on a plate. Layer 2 to 3 pieces of salmon in the mold. Sprinkle salt and pepper over salmon. Sprinkle a little Champagne vinaigrette over the salmon and top with croutons. Peel and slice the avocados into 1/4-inch cubes. Squeeze lemon juice over avocado to avoid discoloration; this will also compliment the flavors of the dish. Add a little wasabi to the avocados and gently toss. Place 3 to 4 slices of the avocado on top of the salmon. Repeat the layers 1 more time. Remove the ring mold and garnish the top with a small piece of chive. Repeat to make a total of 4 tiers.
