Seared Salmon with Roasted Chickpeas and Steamed Broccoli
Pan-seared salmon served over a bed of spiced roasted chickpeas and tender steamed broccoli, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon for a bright, zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Canned Chickpeas, rinsed and dried
1.5 cups Broccoli Florets
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the dried chickpeas with half of the olive oil, garlic powder, and smoked paprika in a small bowl.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes until they are slightly crunchy.
While the chickpeas roast, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
Season the salmon fillet with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side up in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted chickpeas and steamed broccoli.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
