INGREDIENTS

7 oz Salmon fillet

1 cup Asparagus

1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 tsp Garlic powder

0.5 whole Lemon

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 place the spears on the baking sheet.

• 3

  Drizzle the asparagus with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil and season with half of the sea salt and black pepper.

• 4

  Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender-crisp and slightly charred.

• 5

  While asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a crispy sear.

• 6

  Season the salmon on both sides with the remaining sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

• 7

  Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

• 8

  Place the salmon in the pan, skin-side down, and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to prevent curling.

• 9

  Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and crispy.

• 10

  Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is cooked to your preferred level of doneness.

• 11

  Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over everything.
