INGREDIENTS
5 oz Atlantic Salmon Fillet
6 asparagus spears
1 tsp olive oil (for asparagus)
1.5 cup cauliflower florets
2 tsp butter
1 tsp olive oil (for cauliflower)
1 garlic clove
2 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tbsp fresh thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Trim the asparagus, then toss them in 1 tsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the chopped thyme and parsley. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 10 minutes.
In a small pan, heat 1 tsp olive oil with the minced garlic until fragrant. Add the steamed cauliflower and 2 tsp butter, then mash until smooth. Stir in additional salt, pepper, and the remaining herbs to taste.
Season the salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of thyme. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the interior reaches your preferred doneness.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the herb roasted asparagus and a generous serving of garlic mashed cauliflower.
Garnish with extra fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
