INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Trim the asparagus ends and toss them in a small bowl with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat the salmon dry with paper towels.
Season the salmon generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, lay the salmon fillet skin-side down without moving it.
Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and releases easily from the pan, then carefully flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
Squeeze a lemon wedge over the salmon during the final minute of cooking for a burst of fresh flavor.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
