Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Lentils
Pan-seared salmon and tender steamed asparagus served over earthy lentils, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
5.3 oz Salmon Fillet
0.6 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus Spears
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and cook the lentils until tender but still firm to the bite, then drain.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Spread the warm lentils onto a plate as a base and top with the seared salmon and steamed asparagus.
Finish the dish by drizzling fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables for a bright, clean flavor.
