INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Begin by patting the salmon dry and lightly seasoning it with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a small portion of the olive oil. Once hot, place the salmon fillet skin-side down and sear for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the flesh is opaque and just cooked through.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Simultaneously, steam the cauliflower florets (if not pre-chopped, chop into small pieces) for about 8-10 minutes until soft.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a bowl and mash with the remaining olive oil, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to taste for a creamy consistency.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Squeeze the lemon wedge over the salmon just before serving to add a burst of freshness.
