INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 medium Sweet Potato
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
Salt & Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
Lightly brush the pan with olive oil. Place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, ensuring it remains moist inside. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the salmon during the final minute of cooking.
Meanwhile, peel and chop the sweet potato into small cubes. Boil or steam them until tender, about 10-12 minutes, then drain.
Mash the sweet potato with a fork or potato masher. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Trim the asparagus ends and steam them for about 4-5 minutes until crisp-tender.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of mashed sweet potato and steamed asparagus. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired and serve immediately.
