Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillets develop a crispy, golden skin while served alongside vibrant tender-crisp asparagus spears finished with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
1 cup asparagus
0.5 tbsp ghee
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.5 whole lemon
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and set them aside.
Heat the ghee in a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact for a crispy skin.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness.
Remove the salmon from the pan to rest; add the asparagus to the same skillet, sautéing for 4 minutes in the remaining juices until tender.
Plate the salmon and asparagus together, finishing with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the entire dish.
