Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a silky cauliflower mash, all finished with a bright, zesty lemon caper butter sauce that ties the flavors together.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 tbsp Capers
1 tsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, place the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until just cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Meanwhile, arrange the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet still crisp.
For the cauliflower mash, steam or boil the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and blend with the teaspoon of olive oil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Prepare the lemon caper butter sauce by gently melting the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the capers and lemon juice, and heat through for about 1-2 minutes.
Plate the dish by spreading a portion of the cauliflower mash on the plate, placing the seared salmon on top or to the side, and arranging the asparagus alongside. Drizzle the lemon caper butter sauce over the salmon and serve immediately.
