INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
Dash of Lemon
1 Garlic clove
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by rinsing the salmon fillet and patting it dry with a paper towel. Brush lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillet, skin-side down if applicable. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is just opaque in the center.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus by placing it in a steamer over boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Simultaneously, prepare brown rice according to package instructions if not already cooked (using a 1/2 cup cooked serving).
Mince the garlic clove and, in the last minute of cooking the salmon, add it for a burst of flavor. Squeeze a dash of lemon over the salmon and lightly toss with additional salt and pepper if desired.
Plate the salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of brown rice. Serve warm and enjoy a nutrient-dense, balanced dinner.
