Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Zesty Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillets served with crisp-tender asparagus and a vibrant lemon-garlic finish that offers a bright, citrusy zing.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup asparagus spears
1 clove garlic
0.5 whole lemon
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Carefully place the salmon in the pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it, ensuring the skin becomes golden and crispy.
Flip the fillet and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest; add the asparagus and minced garlic to the pan, sautéing for 4 minutes until tender.
Return the salmon to the plate, top with the sautéed asparagus, and finish with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
