INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Green Beans
0.8 cup Cooked Lentils
1 tsp Olive Oil (for lentil mash)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for green beans)
2 Garlic Cloves
Salt to taste
Dash of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season it with salt and a dash of black pepper.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a teaspoon of olive oil and sear the salmon, skin-side down first if applicable, for about 4 minutes per side or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Meanwhile, steam or blanch the green beans until they are tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes. In a separate small pan, warm a teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat and add minced garlic (from 1 clove). Toss the green beans in the garlic olive oil and season with a pinch of salt.
In a small saucepan, warm the cooked lentils. Stir in a teaspoon of olive oil and the minced garlic from the remaining clove. Gently mash the lentils with a fork or potato masher until they reach a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of garlic green beans and a generous scoop of lentil mash. Serve immediately.
