Lemon-Garlic Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a vibrant blend of flavors with perfectly pan-seared salmon infused with lemon and garlic, served alongside tender roasted asparagus. This dish balances light citrus notes with rich, savory salmon, making it a refreshing, satisfying option for a healthy meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 medium Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F to roast the asparagus.
Gather all ingredients. Finely mince the garlic and squeeze the lemon to extract its juice.
Season the salmon fillet on both sides lightly with salt and pepper, then drizzle half the olive oil and a bit of lemon juice over it.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the salmon fillet in the pan skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes. Flip the salmon and add the minced garlic to the pan, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through but still moist.
Meanwhile, toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Plate the salmon and roasted asparagus together, and drizzle additional fresh lemon juice over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
