Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Sweet Potato Mash
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet with a crispy skin and tender flesh, accompanied by roasted asparagus spears and a velvety sweet potato mash. The dish is accented with a hint of lemon and aromatic herbs, making it as delightful in flavor as it is in presentation.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Salmon Fillet
6 Asparagus Spears
1 small Sweet Potato
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Begin by peeling the sweet potato and cutting it into small cubes. Boil the cubes in a pot of water until tender, about 15 minutes, then drain and mash lightly.
While the sweet potato is cooking, prepare the asparagus by trimming the woody ends, tossing them with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and placing on a baking sheet.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the salmon fillet dry, season both sides with salt and pepper, and sear the skin side first for about 3-4 minutes until crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3 minutes or until the desired doneness is reached. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.
Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for 8-10 minutes until tender-crisp.
Plate the dish by serving a generous portion of sweet potato mash alongside the seared salmon and roasted asparagus. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
