Lemon-Garlic Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Broccoli
Savor the bright flavors of lemon and garlic infused into a perfectly pan-seared salmon, paired with tender roasted broccoli. This dish offers a delightful balance of textures and a burst of citrusy freshness, making it both satisfying and vibrant.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
In a mixing bowl, toss the broccoli with half a teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread it on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the broccoli roasts, pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Mince the garlic and zest half a lemon. Set aside a few lemon slices for garnish if desired.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil. Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a nice crust forms.
Flip the salmon, add the minced garlic and lemon zest to the pan, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through but still moist.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon during the last minute of cooking for added brightness.
Plate the salmon with the roasted broccoli on the side, and garnish with a lemon slice if desired.
