Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Enjoy a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender roasted asparagus and a bright splash of lemon. This dish is elevated by the rich flavors of the salmon and the crisp freshness of the asparagus, all brought together with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet (approx. 185g)
1 bunch Asparagus (approx. 134g)
1/2 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (approx. 2.3g)
1 lemon wedge (approx. 15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for roasting the asparagus.
Rinse the asparagus and trim off the woody ends. Toss the asparagus with the extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 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 a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your light yet protein-packed dinner.
