INGREDIENTS
9 ounces Salmon Filet
1 medium Sweet Potato
1 tsp Olive Oil (for Sweet Potato)
1.5 cups Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil (for Green Beans)
2 cloves Garlic
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Poke holes in the sweet potato with a fork, drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil and a pinch of salt, then place on a baking sheet. Roast for 35-40 minutes until tender.
While the sweet potato is roasting, prepare the green beans: Trim the ends and blanch them in salted boiling water for 3-4 minutes, then drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt, fresh dill, lemon juice, a minced garlic clove, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the tzatziki sauce; refrigerate until ready to serve.
Season the 9-ounce salmon filet with salt, pepper, and a little lemon juice. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, for about 4-5 minutes per side until nicely browned and just cooked through.
In the same skillet, add the remaining minced garlic (or lightly sauté in a separate small pan) with 1 teaspoon olive oil and toss the blanched green beans until they are well coated and warmed through.
Plate the seared salmon with a side of roasted sweet potato and garlic green beans. Serve with a dollop of the homemade tzatziki sauce on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
