INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1/4 tsp Dried Thyme
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley, dried thyme, and a squeeze of lemon juice for the herb crust.
Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then press the herb mixture evenly onto the top of the fillet.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon skin side down and sear for about 3 minutes until crispy.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness is reached. Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add unsalted butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the asparagus, tossing to coat in the garlic butter. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the asparagus is tender yet crisp.
Plate the salmon and arrange the garlic butter asparagus on the side. Drizzle any remaining pan sauce over the salmon and enjoy immediately.
