Pan-Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
Pan-seared wild salmon served over a creamy cauliflower mash with tender steamed asparagus and a squeeze of bright, zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
2 cups Cauliflower Florets
5 Asparagus spears
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 Lemon, juiced
1 clove Garlic, minced
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Place the cauliflower florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes until very soft.
During the last 4 minutes of steaming the cauliflower, add the asparagus spears to the steamer basket to cook until tender-crisp.
While vegetables steam, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125-130°F for medium-rare.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender or food processor with the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Blend the cauliflower until smooth and creamy.
Plate the cauliflower mash first, top with the pan-seared salmon, and serve the steamed asparagus on the side.
Finish the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the salmon and greens.
