Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillet with a crispy golden crust served alongside tender oven-roasted asparagus and a bright squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz salmon fillet
10 medium asparagus spears
2 tsp olive oil
0.5 whole lemon
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the asparagus and toss with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Mince the garlic and add it to the pan during the last minute of cooking for extra aroma.
Serve the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
