Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a delicious and balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a side of nutty brown rice. The salmon is seared to lock in flavor and nutrients, while the asparagus and brown rice round out the meal to create a harmonious blend of textures and tastes.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by rinsing the salmon fillet and patting it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the salmon fillet skin side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, bring a pot of water to a simmer and prepare a steamer basket with asparagus spears, steaming them for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
If not already pre-cooked, heat the brown rice as per package instructions until warm.
Remove the salmon from the skillet and drizzle with lemon juice. Plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and warm brown rice.
Finish with an optional light sprinkle of additional salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
