INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 small Sweet Potato
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil (for roasting asparagus)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for searing salmon)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the asparagus and baking the sweet potato if desired.
Season the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Meanwhile, prick the sweet potato a few times with a fork. Bake or microwave until soft. If baking, it can be done at 400°F for about 40-45 minutes; if microwaving, cook on high for 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, scoop out the flesh and mash it until smooth. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to achieve a creamy texture and season with salt and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through but still moist.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of roasted asparagus and a generous scoop of sweet potato mash. Enjoy your balanced dinner!
