INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup steamed and mashed Cauliflower (approx. 100g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (approx. 60g)
4 Asparagus Spears
1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Season the salmon fillet on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the extra virgin olive oil. Once hot, place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms. Adjust cooking time as needed based on thickness.
Meanwhile, place the asparagus spears on a baking sheet, lightly season with salt and pepper, and roast in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Steam cauliflower florets until very tender. Transfer to a bowl and mash with a fork or blend until smooth. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and season with a pinch of salt and pepper for extra creaminess.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of roasted asparagus and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Drizzle a teaspoon of lemon juice over the salmon for added brightness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful dinner.
