Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillets paired with crisp-tender asparagus and a bright squeeze of lemon for a vibrant, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon fillet
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
0.5 whole Lemon
1 tsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a golden crust, then season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and finely mince the garlic clove.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and the flesh is cooked halfway through.
Carefully flip the salmon and add the asparagus and minced garlic to the empty spaces in the pan.
Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, tossing the asparagus frequently with tongs, until the salmon is opaque and the asparagus is bright green and tender.
Remove from heat, squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the entire pan, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
