Seared Salmon Fillet with Lentil Salad and Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon served over a zesty chilled lentil salad with oven-roasted asparagus, finished with a squeeze of lemon and fresh dill for a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
9 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the asparagus with half of the olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then roast for 10-12 minutes until tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and remaining olive oil to create a simple dressing.
Toss the cooked lentils with the dressing and set aside to let the flavors meld.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season the flesh side with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the salmon skin-side down.
Press the fillet down firmly for 30 seconds to ensure the skin becomes crisp and golden.
Sear for 4-5 minutes on the skin side, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque.
Serve the seared salmon atop the lentil salad with the roasted asparagus on the side.
