Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Zesty Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillet featuring a crispy golden skin served alongside tender asparagus spears finished with a bright and zesty lemon-garlic glaze.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic
0.5 whole lemon
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and add the trimmed asparagus spears to the empty spaces in the skillet.
Cook the salmon for another 3 minutes while tossing the asparagus frequently until tender-crisp.
Stir in the minced garlic and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus during the final minute of cooking.
Remove from heat and serve immediately while the salmon is flaky and the asparagus is vibrant.
