INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Begin by rinsing and patting dry the salmon fillet with a paper towel.
Season the salmon evenly on both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon fillet skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes, depending on thickness, until the fish is just opaque in the center.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the asparagus by rinsing and trimming the woody ends. Steam the asparagus in a steamer or lightly simmer in a pot with a bit of water for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Reheat or prepare the cooked brown rice if not already done, ensuring it is warm just before serving.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the seared salmon for a fresh finish.
Plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and brown rice. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
