Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
Enjoy a beautifully seared salmon paired with vibrant roasted asparagus and a creamy cauliflower mash accented with parmesan. This balanced dinner offers a satisfying mix of textures and rich flavors with a light, fresh finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for salmon)
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for asparagus)
1 cup Cauliflower
2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Lightly toss the asparagus with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender.
While the asparagus roasts, steam or boil the cauliflower until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
Mash the cauliflower with a fork or immersion blender until smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and pepper.
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and let it shimmer.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down in the skillet, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, and add a serving of cauliflower mash on the side. Serve immediately.
