Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Crispy pan-seared salmon fillets served alongside tender roasted asparagus spears finished with a bright and zesty squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
1 cup asparagus
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp ghee
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.5 whole lemon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and black pepper.
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and the ghee in a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan and sear undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F for a flaky finish.
Plate the salmon next to the roasted asparagus and finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice over everything.
