Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Garlic Mashed Cauliflower
Pan-seared sockeye salmon served over a bed of creamy garlic cauliflower mash with tender-crisp steamed asparagus and a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Cauliflower florets
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Place cauliflower florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes until very soft.
While cauliflower steams, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Transfer the softened cauliflower to a food processor or bowl, adding minced garlic and half of the olive oil, then blend until smooth and creamy.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 4 minutes on the first side.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the exterior is golden and the center is just opaque.
Plate the garlic cauliflower mash first, top with the seared salmon, and serve the asparagus on the side with a fresh squeeze of zesty lemon.
