Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Lemon
Savor this beautifully pan-seared salmon, perfectly crusted with fresh herbs and finished with a bright lemon squeeze. The tender, flaky fish is paired with crisp, lightly sautéed asparagus, creating a balanced dish that delights the senses and nourishes the body.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Rosemary, Thyme, Parsley)
1/2 medium Lemon
1 cup Asparagus
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the mixed fresh herbs and a teaspoon of olive oil.
Coat the salmon fillet with the herb mixture, pressing gently so it adheres well.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until nicely browned.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, steam or boil the asparagus until tender yet crisp (about 3-4 minutes).
Plate the salmon alongside the asparagus. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon for a bright finish and serve immediately.
