Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Sweet Potato Mash
Enjoy a vibrant plate of perfectly seared salmon paired with tender roasted asparagus and a velvety sweet potato mash. This dish offers a delightful balance of rich, buttery salmon and the natural sweetness of sweet potato, accented with a hint of lemon and garlic for an extra burst of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
6 Asparagus Spears
1 small Sweet Potato
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/4 Lemon
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel and cube the sweet potato. Boil the cubes in lightly salted water until tender, about 12-15 minutes.
While the sweet potato cooks, trim the tough ends off the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tsp olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crisp crust forms, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the center is just opaque.
Drain the sweet potato and mash until smooth. Squeeze in the fresh lemon juice and season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the seared salmon, add a serving of sweet potato mash, and garnish with the roasted asparagus.
Finish with an optional drizzle of extra lemon juice over the salmon, and serve immediately.
