Lemon Juice Salmon Fillets with Asparagus

Ingredients

Salmon (cut into fillets about 0.5 cm thick, 5 cm wide, 8 cm long) 1
Asparagus (washed, tough ends trimmed, cut in half) 2
Lemon 4 slices
Wine 1 tbsp
Garlic powder 1 tsp
Fine salt 1 tsp
Butter (about half a matchbox in size) 1 small piece

Instructions

1

Marinating

Cut the salmon into fillets and marinate with fine salt and wine for 5 minutes.

2

Preparing the Asparagus

Wash the asparagus, trim off the tough ends, cut in half, and blanch in salted water until just tender.

3

Pan-Frying the Salmon

Place the butter in a skillet and, once melted, sprinkle in the garlic powder. Lay the marinated salmon fillets in the hot butter and pan-fry over medium-low heat until golden on both sides. Transfer to a plate and arrange the asparagus and lemon slices alongside. When serving, squeeze the lemon juice directly over the fish.
