Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon-Dill Sauce
Crispy skin-on salmon pan-seared to perfection and drizzled with a tangy, creamy lemon-dill yogurt sauce alongside tender roasted asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Wild-caught salmon fillet
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh dill
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, and minced garlic until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering but not smoking.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact; sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the salmon finishes, steam the asparagus spears for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp, then season with the remaining salt and pepper.
Transfer the salmon and asparagus to a plate and finish by topping the fish with a generous dollop of the prepared lemon-dill sauce.
