INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 medium Lemon wedges
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the asparagus. Trim the tough ends off the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil, squeeze on the juice of one lemon wedge, add minced garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Season both sides 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 the edges start to turn opaque.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. A squeeze of lemon over the top adds brightness.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, garnish with the remaining lemon wedge, and serve immediately.
