Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Lentil Pilaf
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over a savory lentil pilaf with tender-crisp steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cooked Lentils
10 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup chopped Yellow Onion
1 clove minced Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
While the salmon cooks, heat the remaining olive oil in a separate small pan over medium heat.
Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent and fragrant.
Add the cooked lentils to the aromatics, stirring gently to heat through and create the pilaf.
Steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3-5 minutes until they are vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Serve the seared salmon over the lentil pilaf with the steamed asparagus on the side, garnished with a fresh lemon wedge.
