INGREDIENTS
7.5 oz Salmon Fillet (~213g)
1 cup Cooked Lentils (~198g)
2 cups Spinach (~60g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 4-5 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until just cooked through. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon is cooking, heat a separate pan over medium heat and add a lightly crushed 2 cloves garlic. Sauté briefly until aromatic, then add the spinach. Cook the spinach, stirring frequently, until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
For the lentil mash, if not already mashed, warm the cooked lentils in a small pot and lightly mash them with a fork to create a rough texture. Season with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a generous serving of garlic spinach and a scoop of lentil mash. Serve immediately and enjoy.
