Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Zesty Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillet with a crisp golden crust served alongside tender asparagus spears finished with a bright, zesty lemon glaze.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
1 cup asparagus
0.5 tbsp avocado oil
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season the flesh side with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and set them aside.
Heat the avocado oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact; cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and add the asparagus to the empty spaces in the pan.
Cook for another 3-4 minutes, tossing the asparagus occasionally, until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Turn off the heat and sprinkle the lemon zest and lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus before serving immediately.
