A restaurant-quality salmon dish featuring a classic French Beurre Blanc sauce and perfectly cooked asparagus. This recipe utilizes a pan-searing technique for a crispy skin and tender flesh.
Prepare the Asparagus: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss Asparagus with Olive oil, Salt, and Pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
Make the Beurre Blanc: In a saucepan, combine White wine, White wine vinegar, and Shallot. Bring to a simmer and reduce until almost dry.
Reduce heat to low and begin whisking in cold Butter, one cube at a time, until emulsified. Do not allow the sauce to boil.
Stir in Heavy cream, Salt, and White pepper. Keep warm.
Pan-Sear the Salmon: Pat Salmon fillets dry and season with Salt and Pepper.
Heat 1 tbsp of Olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Place Salmon fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
Flip the Salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve the Salmon immediately with the Beurre Blanc sauce and roasted Asparagus.
