INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet (approx 142g)
1 cup Asparagus (approx 134g)
1/3 cup Cooked Brown Rice (approx 55g)
1/4 cup Shelled Edamame (approx 39g)
PREPARATION
Start by patting the salmon fillet dry and season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a small drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus until just tender, about 4-5 minutes. Season lightly with salt and a dash of pepper.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice if needed. If using freshly cooked rice, measure out about 1/3 cup per serving.
For extra protein and texture, steam the shelled edamame in the same basket as the asparagus during the last 2 minutes of steaming.
Plate the dish by serving the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus, brown rice, and edamame. Garnish with a lemon wedge and fresh herbs if desired.
