Baked Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Lentil Mash
Oven-baked salmon fillet served over a creamy garlic-herb lentil mash with a side of tender steamed asparagus and a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the salmon fillet with sea salt, cracked black pepper, and dried dill.
Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon bakes, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for about 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
In a small bowl, mash the warm cooked lentils with a fork or immersion blender, adding minced garlic and a splash of warm water or vegetable broth to reach a creamy consistency.
Stir half of the lemon juice into the lentil mash and season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the creamy lentil mash, top it with the baked salmon, and serve the steamed asparagus on the side with the remaining lemon juice drizzled over the top.
