Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a vibrant and nutritious dinner featuring a perfectly seared 5-ounce salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a side of nutty brown rice. The textures and flavors blend beautifully for a meal that's as satisfying as it is wholesome.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Lemon Wedges
PREPARATION
Start by rinsing the salmon fillet under cool water and patting it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) in the pan.
Sear the salmon for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side until the exterior is crisp and the fish is cooked through.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus until tender but still crisp, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. A steamer basket over boiling water works well.
Prepare the brown rice if not already cooked, ensuring it is warmed through before serving.
Plate the dish by arranging the steamed asparagus and brown rice, then top with the seared salmon. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon for added brightness before serving.
