Peel the sweet potato and chop it into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
Place the sweet potato cubes in a pot of boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes until they are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are boiling, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan, skin-side down, and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden; flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot, then add the Greek yogurt and chopped fresh parsley.
Mash the potatoes until smooth and velvety, then plate the mash and top with the seared salmon.
Finish the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
