Seared Salmon with Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
Savor the succulent seared salmon paired with vibrant roasted asparagus and a silky cauliflower mash. The dish is elevated by a drizzle of olive oil and a hint of garlic, making it a balanced, nutrient-packed dinner that is both elegant and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season generously with salt and pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is shimmering, add the salmon fillet skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the interior reaches desired doneness. Squeeze half a lemon over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon cooks, steam the cauliflower florets until soft, about 8-10 minutes.
Once softened, combine the cauliflower with a minced garlic clove, a drizzle of remaining olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper; then blend or mash until smooth and creamy.
Meanwhile, roast or steam the asparagus until tender, around 5-7 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of asparagus and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Garnish with an extra lemon wedge if desired.
