INGREDIENTS
8 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for asparagus)
1 cup Cauliflower
1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for mash)
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus and toss with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them evenly on the baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, prepare the cauliflower mash by steaming the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender or food processor, add 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, nonfat Greek yogurt, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
While the vegetables are roasting and steaming, season the salmon fillet on both sides with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until just cooked through.
Plate the seared salmon with a generous serving of roasted asparagus and a scoop of cauliflower mash. Garnish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired and serve immediately.
