Seared Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Asparagus
Pan-seared sockeye salmon paired with oven-roasted sweet potato cubes and tender asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
10 oz Sockeye Salmon Fillet
120g Sweet Potato, cubed
150g Asparagus spears, trimmed
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh lemon wedge
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with half of the olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then spread them onto the baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potatoes for 10 minutes before adding the trimmed asparagus to the other side of the tray.
Drizzle the remaining oil over the asparagus and continue roasting for another 10 to 12 minutes until all vegetables are tender.
While the vegetables roast, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a high-quality non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and place the salmon skin-side down.
Press the fillet down gently with a spatula and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and asparagus, finishing with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
