INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1/4 cup Cooked Lentils
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if skin on) in the hot skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Meanwhile, prepare the asparagus by rinsing and trimming the woody ends.
Steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over simmering water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
In a small saucepan, gently warm the pre-cooked lentils over low heat; season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Plate the seared salmon, arrange the steamed asparagus on the side, and add a serving of warm lentils. Serve immediately.
