INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1.25 cups Cauliflower
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for mash)
1/4 teaspoon Olive Oil (drizzle)
1 Garlic clove
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable. Sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden and just cooked through.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until tender but still crisp.
For the cauliflower mash, steam the cauliflower florets (use 1.25 cups chopped cauliflower) with a garlic clove for about 8-10 minutes until very tender.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower and garlic to a blender or food processor, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and blend until smooth, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Drizzle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon olive oil over the salmon for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced dinner that meets your dietary goals.
