Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy this delicate seared salmon paired with tender steamed asparagus and nutty brown rice. The dish features perfectly cooked salmon with a hint of citrus, a drizzle of olive oil, and a light seasoning that highlights the natural flavors while staying within your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
6 spears Asparagus
1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper. Drizzle with lemon juice and set aside for a few minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and sear the salmon, skin side down if applicable, for about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus until tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Prepare the brown rice according to the package instructions if not pre-cooked. A simple method is to bring water to a boil, add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 30-40 minutes.
To serve, plate a portion of brown rice, top with the seared salmon, and arrange the steamed asparagus on the side. Optionally, garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice.
Enjoy your balanced dinner that fits your nutritional goals!
