INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the cauliflower: steam or boil 1 cup of cauliflower florets until tender (about 8-10 minutes). Once cooked, transfer to a bowl and mash with 1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter, a pinch of salt, and one minced garlic clove.
Trim the ends of 1 cup of green beans and blanch them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender yet still crisp, then drain and set aside.
Pat the 6-ounce salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the flesh is opaque but still moist.
In the same skillet, add the remaining minced garlic clove with the blanched green beans. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the green beans are well-coated and heated through.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of garlic green beans and a generous scoop of mashed cauliflower. Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious dinner.
