Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1 lb of mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes)
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the mixed vegetables on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the vegetables are roasting, season the salmon fillets with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, and dried thyme.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned salmon fillets to the skillet, skin side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip the fillets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork.
- Serve the pan-seared salmon with the roasted vegetables, garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices, and enjoy!
Pan-Seared Salmon served with roasted vegetables is a classic dish that has its roots in Mediterranean cuisine. The dish features a succulent fillet of salmon, seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices, then seared to perfection in a hot pan. The salmon is then served alongside a colorful array of roasted vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes, which are caramelized to bring out their natural sweetness. This dish has gained popularity in recent years for its healthy and flavorful appeal. Chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver have popularized their own versions of this dish, incorporating their unique culinary styles and techniques. In restaurants across coastal regions like the Pacific Northwest and the Mediterranean, this dish is a staple, often featuring locally sourced salmon and seasonal vegetables. For the best version of this dish, sourcing high-quality, fresh salmon is crucial. The key to achieving the perfect sear on the salmon lies in ensuring the fillet is dry before it hits the hot pan. Additionally, the roasted vegetables should be seasoned generously and cooked until they are tender with crispy edges, adding depth to the dish. An alternative method for making this dish involves grilling the salmon and vegetables, imparting a smoky flavor that complements the natural richness of the fish. Whether prepared in a bustling restaurant kitchen or in the comfort of your own home, Pan-Seared Salmon with roasted vegetables is a delightful and satisfying dish that celebrates the vibrant flavors of the sea and the earth.
