Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Lemon-Herb Rice
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and a zesty lemon-herb rice. This dish is artfully composed to offer a light, refreshing meal that delights the palate with bright citrus notes, aromatic herbs, and the rich flavors of the sea.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/3 cup cooked White Rice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
1/4 lemon (juiced)
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, and a light dusting of garlic powder.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add a dash of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over simmering water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
In a small saucepan, gently reheat the pre-cooked white rice. Stir in the teaspoon of olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, and mix in chopped fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Plate the seared salmon with the steamed asparagus on the side, and serve the lemon-herb rice alongside for a balanced dinner.
