Crispy Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Savor a tender, crispy salmon fillet paired with vibrant roasted asparagus for a balanced and satisfying meal. The salmon is pan-seared to perfection, achieving a delightful crunch on the outside while remaining moist inside, and is complemented by the slightly charred, fresh asparagus. This dish is a harmonious blend of flavors and textures that is as nourishing as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
Pinch Garlic Powder
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel, then season both sides lightly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
In a skillet on medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, place the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin becomes crispy.
Flip the salmon and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until slightly opaque but still tender in the center.
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends of the asparagus and toss them with a light drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
Once ready, plate the salmon fillet alongside the roasted asparagus and garnish with a lemon wedge. Squeeze lemon juice over the salmon immediately before serving.
