Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
Pan-seared sockeye salmon served over creamy garlic cauliflower mash with tender-crisp steamed asparagus and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Cauliflower florets
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Steam the cauliflower florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 10-12 minutes until very tender.
During the last 4 minutes of steaming the cauliflower, add the asparagus spears to the steamer basket to cook until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a bowl or food processor and blend with the minced garlic and half of the olive oil until smooth and creamy.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the skillet and sear for 4 minutes on the skin side, then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the cauliflower mash first, top with the seared salmon fillet, and serve with the steamed asparagus and a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
