Seared Salmon with Lentil Salad and Steamed Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon served over a zesty chilled lentil salad with tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of lemon for a bright, citrusy zing.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon
3/4 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (juiced)
Fresh parsley and sea salt to taste
PREPARATION
Season the salmon fillet with sea salt, black pepper, and a pinch of dried herbs.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the center is just opaque.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
In a mixing bowl, toss the cooked lentils with the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and chopped parsley.
Arrange the lentil salad on a plate, top with the seared salmon fillet, and serve the steamed asparagus alongside.
