Add the oil onto a medium sized frying pan on low to medium low heat. Add in the garlic and onions, followed by the salmon fillet and cook on both sides, until the skin is light brown and crisp. Lightly sauté the baby white carrots and asparagus. Remove the salmon and veggies with tongs and display neatly on the plate. Add the chopped nut and herb mixture on top of the salmon fillet.
