A super easy Easter recipe, this Easter Salmon and Asparagus will have you feeling good after the annual chocolate binge.
Let’s face it, a major chocolate binge over Easter can leave you with a sugar high and a sketchy nervous system. This delicious recipe with its secret weapon – OMGhee – will get you back on track to healthy eating. Ghee has grounding properties and will perk up that sleepy sugar brain. Cook your salmon with OMGhee and you’ve got the perfect ‘food as medicine’ Easter pick me up so it will seem that the chocolate binge never happened.
Prepare your asparagus by removing the tough part of the stalk (usually the bottom centimetre or so).
Bring your frying pan to high heat and add the OMGhee. Ghee has a super high smoking point so you don’t need to worry too much about how high the heat goes. (Don’t burn the house down though!)
Add the salmon to the pan skin side down to get it nice and crispy.
After 1 - 2 min turn the heat down to medium. If the skin is crisp, turn the salmon and continue to cook until the fish is flakey and falls apart. Remove the salmon and allow it to sit.
Turn the temperature up to high, add the asparagus and toss in the salmon juice and ghee until heated through (about a minute).
Serve the salmon with the asparagus and your favourite side, throw some micro herbs on top, squeeze some lemon, add salt and pepper and you’re good to go. Enjoy!
