Seared Salmon with Lentil and Asparagus Salad
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over a warm bed of earthy lentils and tender asparagus, finished with a bright and zesty lemon-herb dressing.
INGREDIENTS
10 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cooked Lentils
1 cup Asparagus spears, chopped
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
PREPARATION
Prepare the dressing by whisking together the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.
Steam or blanch the chopped asparagus for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp, then drain and set aside.
In a medium bowl, toss the warm cooked lentils and steamed asparagus with half of the prepared dressing.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper, then place it in the skillet skin-side down.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the exterior is golden.
Plate the lentil and asparagus salad and top with the seared salmon fillet.
Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salmon and serve immediately.
