INGREDIENTS
9 oz Salmon Fillet
200 g Russet Potato
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2/3 tbsp Unsalted Butter (approx. 1 tsp + 1/2 tbsp combined)
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by thoroughly rinsing the salmon fillet and patting it dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
For the garlic mashed potatoes, peel and dice the potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Add minced garlic and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While the potatoes simmer, preheat a nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Sear the salmon fillet skin-side down for about 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until just cooked through. Adjust cooking time based on thickness.
Once the potatoes are soft, drain them and return them to the pot. Add the low-fat milk, Greek yogurt, and the combined unsalted butter. Mash until smooth and creamy; season with salt and pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, steam the asparagus. Trim the woody ends and steam for about 4-5 minutes until vibrant and tender yet still crisp.
Place the steamed asparagus in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, tossing gently to coat. Season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the dish by placing a generous serving of garlic mashed potatoes alongside the seared salmon fillet, and arrange the steamed asparagus on the side. Serve warm and enjoy!
