Seared Salmon with Creamy Lentil and Asparagus Medley
Pan-seared salmon served over a bed of protein-rich lentils and tender asparagus, finished with a bright lemon-yogurt sauce for a velvety finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus spears
1.5 tablespoons Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
While the salmon finishes, heat the remaining half tablespoon of olive oil in a separate skillet and sauté the asparagus and minced garlic for about 3 minutes.
Stir the cooked lentils into the asparagus pan and toss for 2 minutes until the mixture is heated through.
Remove the lentil pan from the heat and fold in the Greek yogurt and lemon juice until the medley is creamy.
Plate the creamy lentil and asparagus mixture and top with the seared salmon fillet.
