Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Enjoy a light, nutrient-packed dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a side of nutty brown rice. This dish offers a delicate balance of hearty protein and wholesome carbohydrates with a drizzle of olive oil finishing to enhance the flavor and texture.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
8 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon fillet skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque but still moist in the center.
Meanwhile, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender.
If using pre-cooked brown rice, warm it up; if cooking from scratch, ensure it is measured to 1/2 cup cooked per serving.
Plate the salmon with the brown rice and steamed asparagus on the side, and serve immediately.
