Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Garlic Asparagus
Savor a beautifully seared salmon fillet encrusted with a fragrant blend of fresh herbs, paired with crisp garlic-infused asparagus. This dish features a delightful balance of flavors with a light lemon finish, making it perfect for a nutritious and satisfying dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
8 Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the chopped fresh herbs with a little salt and pepper. Press this herb mix onto the top side of the salmon to form a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon, herb side down, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the crust is nicely browned.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Meanwhile, heat another skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the asparagus spears and toss to coat.
Cook the asparagus for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are tender but still crisp.
Plate the salmon alongside the garlic asparagus, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
