In a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add the salmon fillet, mustard side down, and cook over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly browned.
Carefully turn the salmon. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the salmon for 6 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer the fillet to a cutting board.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the lemon juice with the remaining olive oil and mustard. Add the watercress and parsley, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Cut the salmon fillet into 4 pieces and serve with the salad. Enjoy!
