INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
5 Asparagus Spears
1/3 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of olive oil.
Place the salmon, skin-side down, in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crispy crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through and the flesh flakes easily.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus by placing the spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes, until tender yet crisp.
Heat the pre-cooked brown rice briefly in a microwave or in a small saucepan until warm.
Plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and warm brown rice, and finish with a squeeze from a lemon wedge for added brightness.
