INGREDIENTS
4.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 serving (approx. 6 spears) Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.
Meanwhile, steam the asparagus in a steamer or a pot with a steaming insert for about 3-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Prepare the brown rice if not already done, using pre-cooked or freshly cooked rice ensuring it matches the serving size.
Plate the seared salmon with the steamed asparagus and a portion of brown rice, and serve immediately.
