Seared Salmon Fillet with Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy a delectable dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender roasted broccoli. The fish is seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and a hint of lemon, then seared to lock in its natural flavors. Roasted broccoli drizzled with extra virgin olive oil provides a satisfying crunch and a burst of freshness that complements the rich, buttery texture of the salmon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Broccoli
2.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Season the salmon fillet lightly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a portion of the olive oil (about 1 tsp). Once hot, place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the fish is just cooked through and easily flakes with a fork. Squeeze half of the lemon wedge over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon is searing, toss the broccoli florets with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted broccoli, and finish with an additional squeeze of lemon juice over the dish for a fresh burst of flavor.
