Garlic Lemon Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a beautifully simple yet flavorful dish featuring a tender, pan-seared salmon fillet infused with garlic and a bright hit of lemon, complemented by perfectly roasted asparagus spears that add a crisp, earthy balance.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
5 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 Lemon (juiced)
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the asparagus.
Lightly toss the asparagus spears with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and drizzle the juice of half a lemon over the top, cooking for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
