Pan-Seared Salmon with Garlic Rice and Roasted Zucchini
Enjoy a beautifully seared salmon fillet with a fragrant hint of garlic, paired with a delicate serving of garlic-infused rice and tender roasted zucchini slices. This dish offers a light yet satisfying dinner that's both flavorful and perfectly balanced.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/3 cup Cooked White Rice (garlic-infused)
1/2 cup Roasted Zucchini
1 clove Garlic
Nonstick Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small saucepan, warm a tiny amount of water with the minced garlic to infuse flavor into the pre-cooked white rice, or toss the garlic into a very lightly oiled pan with the rice for a quick garlic flavor boost.
Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss zucchini slices with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of garlic-infused water or a light spritz of nonstick spray. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the zucchini in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Warm the garlic rice if needed, then plate by placing the garlic rice and roasted zucchini on the side of the seared salmon.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon if desired and serve immediately.
