INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 tsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine chopped garlic, fresh thyme, and parsley.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the salmon fillet skin-side down for about 3-4 minutes until a crispy crust forms, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until just cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In a separate saucepan, warm the cooked lentils and gently stir in the herb mixture with a drizzle (about 1/2 tbsp) of olive oil to infuse flavor. Heat through for 2 minutes.
Steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes, and season lightly with salt.
Plate the herbed lentils, top with the seared salmon, and arrange the steamed asparagus on the side. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the dish for added richness if desired.
