INGREDIENTS
8 oz Salmon Fillet
1 medium Sweet Potato
8 Asparagus Spears
0.75 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for salmon)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for vegetables)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Peel (if desired) and dice the sweet potato into 1/2-inch cubes. Toss them with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus and toss them with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Arrange on the same or separate baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potatoes and asparagus in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
While the vegetables roast, season the 8 oz salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
In a small bowl, combine 0.75 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill. Mix well and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to create a light herb sauce.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and asparagus. Drizzle the yogurt herb sauce over the salmon or serve on the side. Enjoy!
