INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Large Sweet Potato
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
2 cloves Garlic
1 Lemon wedge
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the olive oil.
Place the salmon in the skillet, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the fish is just opaque in the center.
While the salmon is searing, trim the ends off the green beans. In a small pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat and add minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant, then toss in the green beans. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
For the sweet potato mash, peel the large sweet potato and cut it into cubes. Boil in salted water until tender, approximately 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
Mash the sweet potato cubes with a teaspoon of butter, adding a pinch of salt and pepper for flavor. For a smoother consistency, a small amount of the sweet potato cooking water can be stirred in.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a generous serving of garlic green beans and a helping of sweet potato mash. Garnish with a lemon wedge to add a fresh squeeze of citrus before serving.
