Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet, accompanied by tender steamed asparagus and a side of nutty brown rice. The dish is lightly seasoned to let the natural flavors shine, striking a perfect balance between a crisp sear and a moist interior, complemented by the fresh brightness of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1/3 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet under cool water and pat it dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once 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, until the fish is just opaque in the center. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
While the salmon cooks, bring a pot of water to a simmer, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over the simmering water, cover, and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Heat the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until warm.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and warm brown rice. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the salmon for an extra burst of fresh flavor and serve immediately.
