Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Crispy skin-on salmon fillets seared to perfection and served with tender oven-roasted asparagus spears finished with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
12 oz salmon fillet
2 cups asparagus
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.5 tsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
0.5 whole lemon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss them on the baking sheet with half of the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillets completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with garlic powder and the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a high-quality non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the entire dish before serving.
