To make the dressing, squeeze the juice of 1 lime into a small bowl. Add the sliced chilli, half the red onion, fish sauce and a pinch of salt and sugar. Mix well and set aside.

Brush the salmon with the olive oil and place on a baking tray lined with foil. Half the other lime and also place it on the tray. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through.

Once cooked, allow the salmon to cool slightly then break it up into chunks.

Divide the salad leaves, the remaining ½ onion, fresh herbs, radishes and cucumbers, between 4 plates or bowls and drizzle with the dressing. Squeeze the juice from the baked lime over the salad and toss together adding a little more salt to taste.
6.
Top the salad with the salmon chunks and serve immediately.

If using for a meal prep lunch, allow the salmon to cool completely before combining with the salad and save the dressing and baked lime to be added when eating.
