Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with oven-roasted asparagus and a squeeze of fresh lemon, finished with a sprinkle of sea salt for a bright, tender-crisp bite.
INGREDIENTS
8.5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon fillet
1.5 cups fresh Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp fresh Lemon juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus spears and toss them with half of the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly browned.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a perfect sear.
Season the salmon on both sides with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a high-quality non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to develop a golden-brown crust.
Carefully flip the salmon fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and drizzle everything with fresh lemon juice before serving.
