Ingredients

Servings

Lemon Garlic Asparagus:

  • 1 asparagus trimmed, bunch
  • 1 tablespoon butter salted
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or algae oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • lemon zest of 1
  • salt sea salt and cracked, to taste
  • black pepper sea salt and cracked, to taste

Garlic-Lemon Salmon:

  • 1-1/2 tablespoons butter salted
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound salmon cut into 2 or 3 fillets
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ½ tablespoons lemon juiced (about 2 )
  • salt sea salt

Instructions

Prepare the asparagus:

  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and cook, stirring occasionally for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and lemon zest and continue cooking another 2 to 5 minutes, depending on your desired level of done-ness (I like my asparagus al dente). Sprinkle with sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste.

Prepare the salmon:

  1. Heat a medium-sized non-stick skillet to medium-high and add the butter and olive oil. Sprinkle the salmon fillet with sea salt and place on the hot skillet, skin-side up. Cook for 4 to 6 minutes (depending on thickness of fish), and carefully flip to the other side. Cook 3 minutes, add the garlic and lemon juice and cook another 2 to 3 minutes, until salmon is cooked through but still moist.
