INGREDIENTS
4.75 ounces Salmon Fillet (~135g)
6 spears Asparagus (~80g)
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil (~2.3g)
1/4 medium Lemon (for zest and juice)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Lightly toss asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Sear the salmon in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until a golden crust forms and the interior reaches your desired doneness.
Remove the asparagus from the oven and plate alongside the salmon.
Drizzle a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over both the salmon and asparagus and, if desired, sprinkle some lemon zest on top.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your clean, nutritious dinner.
