Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a vibrant dinner featuring a perfectly seared 6-ounce salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a serving of fluffy brown rice. The dish is lightly finished with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and textures that is both satisfying and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 Lemon
PREPARATION
Begin by rinsing the salmon fillet and patting it dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, ensuring the center is just opaque and moist.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the asparagus by trimming the tough ends. Steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Reheat or prepare the cooked brown rice as per package instructions if not already done.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of brown rice, then garnish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon for an added burst of flavor.
