ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER
Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Pour in 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil, the white pepper, dill, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt in a skillet over medium-low heat until the oil is shimmering. Gently lay the salmon fillet into the oil, and sprinkle with 1 pinch of salt. Arrange the cut asparagus and bits of minced garlic around the salmon in the skillet. Squeeze the lemon slices over the salmon and asparagus, and place the squeezed slices into the skillet. Cover and cook for 8 minutes. Flip the salmon, and cook until the salmon is no longer translucent in the center, about 8 more minutes.
- Remove the salmon, asparagus, garlic, and lemon slices from the skillet to a warmed plate, leaving the juices in the skillet. Whisk in the cream and enough Parmesan cheese to thicken the sauce. Let the cheese melt, and season to taste with salt. To serve, divide the cooked penne pasta, salmon, and asparagus between two plates, with the pasta to the side of the salmon. Spoon the cream sauce over the pasta, and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler with rack set 4 inches away from heat. In a small bowl, stir together hoisin and honey; set aside.
- Spray a baking sheet or broiler pan with cooking spray. Place salmon on sheet, skin-side down. Squeeze juice of half a lime evenly over salmon; season with salt and pepper. Place under broiler, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from oven, and drizzle each fillet with 2 teaspoons hoisin mixture. Return to broiler, and cook until glaze is bubbling and salmon is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide couscous evenly among 4 plates. Top each with salmon, and garnish with scallions and lime wedges. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Look for fresh, firm salmon fillets and asparagus spears.
- Cook the salmon to perfection: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook it until it is just opaque in the center, about 4 minutes per side.
- Make sure the asparagus is tender: Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight crunch. Cook it for about 3-4 minutes, or until it is bright green and tender.
- Use a good quality coconut milk: Coconut milk is the base of the sauce, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a brand that is unsweetened and has a high fat content.
- Season the sauce to taste: The sauce should be flavorful and slightly sweet. Season it with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.
Conclusion:
This salmon and asparagus with coconut sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon and asparagus are cooked to perfection and the coconut sauce is flavorful and creamy. Serve this dish with rice or your favorite side dish and enjoy!
