Seared Salmon Fillet with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Pan-seared wild salmon served with oven-roasted asparagus and a squeeze of fresh lemon, finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
8.5 oz Wild Sockeye Salmon fillet
1.1 cups Asparagus spears, trimmed
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the trimmed asparagus with one teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender but still vibrant green.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan, skin-side down, and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then carefully flip the fillet.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until the salmon reaches your desired level of doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and drizzle everything with fresh lemon juice before serving.
