Enjoy a satisfying dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with garlicky green beans and a creamy mashed white bean side, all drizzled with olive oil for a burst of flavor. This balanced dish offers a delightful mix of textures and flavors, from the crisp-tender beans to the silky mashed beans and richly seared salmon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cannellini Beans (cooked)
1 cup Green Beans
2 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by rinsing and patting dry the salmon fillet. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon skin-side down (or presentation side) and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the exterior is crispy and the interior is just opaque.
While the salmon cooks, bring a pot of lightly salted water to a simmer and blanch the green beans for 3-4 minutes until they turn bright green and remain crisp. Drain and set aside.
In a small pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Toss the blanched green beans in this garlic-infused oil until evenly coated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
For the mashed white beans, warm the cooked cannellini beans in a small saucepan. Once warmed through, transfer them to a bowl and mash using a fork or immersion blender to achieve a creamy consistency. Season with salt and a drizzle of olive oil if desired for extra creaminess.
Plate the dish by placing a generous serving of mashed white beans on one side, arranging the garlic green beans next to it, and topping with the seared salmon fillet. Garnish with an extra drizzle of olive oil or a lemon wedge if desired.
