INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
0.75 medium Sweet Potato
1 tsp Olive Oil (for salmon)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for asparagus)
Salt & Pepper to taste
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the asparagus with 1 tsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder, then spread them on a baking tray.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, pierce the sweet potato with a fork and microwave it for about 5-6 minutes until soft. Alternatively, boil chopped sweet potato pieces until tender.
Once the sweet potato is cooked, mash it with a pinch of salt and pepper. For a smoother texture, add a splash of lemon juice.
Season the salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon skin side down and sear for about 4 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the seared salmon with a generous serving of sweet potato mash and a side of roasted asparagus. Drizzle the lemon juice over the salmon for added brightness before serving.
