Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, shallots, and 1/4 cup oil, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper. Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil, then add salmon and cook 2 to 3 minutes each side, or until mostly opaque with a rosy center. Transfer to a platter and let rest 2 minutes.

In a large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook green beans until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.

Arrange green beans on 4 plates. Top each with a salmon fillet. Spoon tomatoes & vinaigrette over salmon & scatter radishes on top. Serve.
