Ingredients
For the Salmon:
- 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
For the Green Beans:

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Salmon:
Rub salmon fillets with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. - Cook the Salmon:
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned salmon fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky. - Sauté the Green Beans:
In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the green beans and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper. - Assemble the Bowls:
Divide the green beans between serving bowls. Top each with a salmon fillet and drizzle with any remaining garlic butter sauce from the skillet.
Notes
- Swap green beans for broccoli or asparagus to change up the veggies.
- Serve over grains like rice or quinoa for a heartier meal.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
