Method

Wash chard well in a large basin of cold water.


Drain well.


Cut or strip leaves from the stems.


Slice stems into 1/4-inch pieces and set aside in a bowl.


Roughly chop leaves and set aside in a second bowl.


Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.


Add onion and cook until the onions are soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.


Add garlic and sauté 1 minute.


Add chard stems, cover and cook 2 minutes.


Stir in chard leaves, cover and cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently.


Add 1 tablespoon water, if necessary, to create enough steam to cook greens quickly. 


When ready, greens should be wilted but still bright green.


Meanwhile, arrange fillets in a single layer on a large plate and season with pepper.


Squeeze lemon juice over the top, then drizzle on the tamari and sesame oil.


Turn pieces over to coat all surfaces.


Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in another skillet over medium-high heat.


Add salmon, arranging pieces in a single layer, and cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side.


When salmon is done, arrange it on top of the chard and serve immediately.
