Enjoy a beautifully balanced dish featuring a crispy pan-seared salmon fillet complemented by zesty lemon and garlic, paired with tender roasted asparagus. This recipe delivers a satisfying texture contrast, with a flavorful citrus-garlic kick that enhances the natural taste of the salmon and asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
6 Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Rinse the asparagus and trim the woody ends. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, then season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Gently flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the desired doneness is achieved.
In the final minute of roasting the asparagus, finely mince the garlic and zest the lemon. Squeeze half of the lemon juice over the asparagus and toss to coat evenly.
Plate the crispy pan-seared salmon alongside the lemon-garlic roasted asparagus. Garnish with the remaining lemon zest if desired, and serve immediately.
