Servings: 1 serving

Prep time:  10 minutes

Cook time: 10 minutes

Total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 oz Salmon fillet
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil – divided
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 Shallot – ringed
  • Salt and pepper
  • Paprika
  • 2 tbsp Capers
  • 1 cup Green beans
  • 2 tbsp Parmesan

Instructions

  1. Preheat olive oil and butter in a pan over medium-high heat. When butter begins to bubble, add salmon skin-side down. Season the salmon with kosher salt, pepper, and paprika to taste. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the color moves up the salmon about halfway through the fillet. Flip the fish and cook for 2-3 minutes until the temperature reaches medium/medium rare. Set salmon aside.
  2. Prepare the shallots and capers while the salmon is cooking. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small pan and sauté the shallots until soft and caramelized, about 7 minutes. Stir in the capers and lemon juice. When ready to serve, pour sauce over the salmon. Serve with lemon slices as garnish.
  3. Place the green beans in a pot of boiling water. Boil for 4-5 minutes or until the beans are bright green and softened. Drain beans, toss with olive oil, and sprinkle with cheese.
