salmon in a blanket with mustard greens

My BF is really missing out due to a late night at work. This is fabulous.  I was going to post a picture of me stuffing my face, but figured that wouldn't be cool.

1lb salmon fillet
1T crushed garlic
2T minced fresh basil
2T. balsamic vinegar
1 kaffir lime leaf
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup OJ

1 sheet puff pastry

For the salmon, marinade in all of those goodies for several hours.  Next preheat oven to 350.  Sear salmon with skin up to the burner for 5 minutes then remove.  Flip it skin down and wrap the puff pastry over the top.  Drizzle with EVOO and bake for 20 minutes.

Mustard Greens:
1 bunch greens, stems trimmed
1T garlic
1tsp brown sugar
1T balsamic
1/4c. chicken broth

Saute your garlic and add the greens for 3 minutes on medium.  Add sugar, balsamic and chicken broth and cover for 10 minutes until nice and wilty.
Serve your salmon over a bed of greens (couscous on the side is lovely too.)
