Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillet with a crispy skin served alongside tender roasted asparagus and finished with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 bunch Asparagus
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 tsp Sea Salt
0.25 tsp Black Pepper
0.25 tsp Garlic Powder
0.5 whole Lemon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears on the baking sheet with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 12 to 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred at the tips.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season with the remaining salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the entire dish.
