Seared Salmon with Garlic Green Beans and Cauliflower Mash
Enjoy a harmonious plate featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with crisp garlic-infused green beans and a smooth, comforting cauliflower mash. This dish is light yet satisfying, with bright, zesty notes from garlic and lemon balanced by the richness of salmon.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1 cup chopped Cauliflower
1 tsp Olive Oil (for green beans)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for cauliflower mash)
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season it lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In a separate pan, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add one minced garlic clove and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the green beans and a pinch of salt, stirring occasionally. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the beans are tender-crisp. Squeeze half of the lemon juice over the green beans, stir, and remove from heat.
For the cauliflower mash, steam or boil the chopped cauliflower until very tender (about 8-10 minutes). Drain well, then transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender to puree the cauliflower with 1 teaspoon olive oil, the remaining minced garlic, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the remaining lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Plate the seared salmon with a side of garlic green beans and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavor-packed dinner.
