INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Salmon Fillet (156g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
0.5 cup cooked Brown Rice (100g)
1.5 tsp Olive Oil (7.5g)
0.5 Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms, then flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes or until the desired doneness is reached.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over simmering water for 4-5 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
Prepare the lemon herb rice by combining the cooked brown rice in a bowl with 1.5 teaspoons of olive oil, the juice and zest of half a lemon, and 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss well.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of the lemon herb rice. Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley or lemon wedges if desired.
