This dish highlights the natural flavors of salmon, balanced with a delicate crunch and citrus zing, making it an ideal choice for a wholesome and energizing meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1/2 tsp Dried Mixed Herbs (thyme & rosemary)
1 Garlic clove
1 Lemon (zest & juice)
1 cup Mixed Greens
1/2 cup halved Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil (salad drizzle)
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Mix the dried mixed herbs with a minced garlic clove and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down and press gently; sprinkle the herb and garlic mixture evenly over the top.
Sear the salmon for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the fish is cooked to your preference.
While the salmon cooks, zest the lemon and then cut it in half; squeeze the juice over the salmon once flipped for an added citrus kick.
Prepare a simple salad by combining mixed greens and halved cherry tomatoes in a bowl; drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice, tossing to combine.
Plate the crispy salmon alongside the fresh salad and garnish with additional lemon zest if desired.
