INGREDIENTS

7 oz Salmon fillet

1 cup Asparagus

2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.5 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 tsp Garlic

1 tbsp Lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, 0.25 teaspoon of sea salt, and a pinch of black pepper.

• 3

  Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

• 4

  While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with the remaining salt and pepper.

• 5

  Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

• 6

  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 very crispy.

• 7

  Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes, adding the minced garlic to the pan during the last minute of cooking to aromaticize the oil.

• 8

  Remove from heat and plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus, drizzling everything with fresh lemon juice before serving.
