INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cauliflower
1 cup Asparagus
2 tbsp Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Start by patting the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the salmon fillet skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus until they are tender yet still crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
For the cauliflower mash, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, approximately 8-10 minutes.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender or use a hand masher. Add the 2 tablespoons of nonfat Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and a squeeze of lemon juice along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend or mash until smooth and creamy.
Plate the seared salmon, arrange the steamed asparagus on the side, and add a generous scoop of the cauliflower mash.
Drizzle the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over the salmon or mash if desired, and garnish with an extra dash of lemon juice or freshly ground pepper.
