Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Brown Rice
Savor a light yet satisfying dinner featuring tender seared salmon paired with fluffy brown rice and crisp steamed broccoli. This dish offers a perfect harmony of flavors and textures, with the rich, buttery salmon complemented by the nutty rice and fresh, vibrant broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup dry Brown Rice
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet and pat dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and add the brown rice (using 1/4 cup dry rice, which should yield about 3/4 cup cooked) along with a pinch of salt. Simmer on low heat until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 35-40 minutes, or use a pre-cooked method if available.
Meanwhile, steam the broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 5-7 minutes until bright green and just tender.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the salmon fillet skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed broccoli and warm brown rice. Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-rich dinner.
