Pan-Seared Crispy Salmon with Lemon Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a vibrant plate featuring a perfectly pan-seared, crispy-skinned salmon fillet paired with tangy lemon roasted asparagus. The salmon is cooked to golden perfection, locking in moisture and flavor, while the asparagus is tender-crisp with a hint of citrus brightness, making this dish a delightful balance of protein and refreshing greens.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus (approx. 8 spears)
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 whole Lemon
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon dry with paper towels. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, carefully place the salmon skin-side down. Press gently to ensure even contact with the pan.
Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for a minute.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and garnish with additional lemon wedges if desired.
