Pan-Seared Fish with Creamy Lentil Salad
Pan-seared white fish served over a zesty red lentil and cucumber salad, topped with a dollop of creamy skyr and buttery avocado slices.
INGREDIENTS
0.25 cup dry red lentils
6 oz white fish fillet
0.5 cup cucumber
0.25 cup plain skyr
0.25 whole avocado
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried dill
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and boil in a small pot of water for 10-12 minutes until tender but still holding their shape, then drain and set aside.
While the lentils cook, dice the cucumber into small cubes and slice the avocado into thin wedges.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the plain skyr, lemon juice, and dried dill to create a creamy herb dressing.
Thaw the fish fillet if frozen, pat it dry with a paper towel, and season both sides with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the fish for 3-4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the flesh is opaque and flaky.
In a medium bowl, toss the cooked lentils with the diced cucumber and the skyr dressing until well coated.
Plate the lentil salad as a base, place the pan-seared fish on top, and garnish with the avocado slices and the remaining salt and pepper.
