Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Lemon
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with tender steamed asparagus and a bright squeeze of lemon, finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 fresh Lemon
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Carefully place the salmon in the pan, skin-side down, and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes crisp.
While the salmon is searing, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Flip the salmon fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches your preferred level of doneness.
Transfer the salmon and asparagus to a plate, squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the entire dish, and finish with a touch of flaky sea salt.
