Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon Zest
Enjoy a beautifully seared salmon paired with tender roasted asparagus, accented by a bright hint of lemon zest. This dish brings together the rich, buttery flavor of salmon with the fresh, crisp notes of asparagus for a dinner that satisfies both the palate and your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
Zest of 1/2 Lemon
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillet. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and the zest of half a lemon.
Place the salmon on a plate and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once shimmering, add the salmon fillet skin-side down.
Sear the salmon for about 4-5 minutes until a golden crust forms, then carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, and garnish with any remaining lemon zest.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed dinner!
