Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a side of nutty brown rice. This meal offers a harmonious blend of textures and flavors that are as nourishing as they are delicious.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet and pat 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 1 tsp of olive oil. Once shimmering, place the salmon fillet skin-side (if applicable) down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is cooked through yet still moist in the center.
While the salmon is cooking, bring a small pot of water to a gentle boil, and add the asparagus spears. Steam for about 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Simultaneously, heat the already cooked brown rice in a microwave-safe bowl or in a small saucepan until warmed through.
Drizzle lemon juice over the cooked salmon before serving, and plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and warm brown rice.
Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste, and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed dinner.
