Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon-Dill Sauce
Pan-seared salmon fillet topped with a creamy, zesty lemon-dill sauce and served with tender asparagus for a bright and refreshing finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon fillet
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh dill
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Lemon zest
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1.5 cup Asparagus spears
0.25 cup Cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the salmon in the skillet and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to develop a golden-brown crust.
Flip the fillet and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon sears, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, and lemon zest until the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Arrange the cooked quinoa and steamed asparagus on a plate, top with the seared salmon, and drizzle the lemon-dill sauce over the fish before serving.
