Salmon

Brussels Sprouts

Butternut Squash

Wilted Spinach

Sage Brown Butter Sauce

Method

Salmon Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Season the Atlantic salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Pan Roast the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes, until the skin is crispy. Carefully flip the fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. Remove from heat and keep warm.

Brussels Sprouts Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the ends and halve the Brussels sprouts. In the same skillet used for the salmon, melt the butter over medium heat.

  2. 4

    Caramelize the Brussels Sprouts

    Add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet, cut side down. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown. Stir in balsamic vinegar and honey, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until well-coated and tender.

Butternut Squash Preparation

  1. 5

    Roast the Butternut Squash

    Peel, seed, and cube the butternut squash. Toss the cubes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

Wilted Spinach Preparation

  1. 6

    Sauté the Spinach

    In the same skillet, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the fresh spinach and salt, and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Sage Brown Butter Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Sage Brown Butter Sauce

    In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add fresh sage leaves and cook until the butter turns golden brown and the sage is crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.

Plating

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Plate the salmon fillets alongside the caramelized Brussels sprouts, roasted butternut squash, and wilted spinach. Drizzle the sage brown butter sauce over the salmon and serve immediately.
