Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a perfectly balanced dinner featuring a golden-seared salmon fillet paired with tender roasted asparagus and a modest side of nutty brown rice. This dish combines a delightful mix of textures and flavors, from the crispy exterior of the salmon to the earthy crunch of asparagus, all elevated by a touch of citrus and seasoning.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for roasting the asparagus.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with 1 teaspoon of olive oil until it shimmers.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked to your desired doneness.
While the salmon is searing, trim the asparagus and toss with a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Warm the cooked brown rice if needed. Plate the salmon, arrange the roasted asparagus on the side, and serve with the brown rice.
Drizzle with lemon juice just before serving to add a bright, fresh flavor.
