Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Savor a beautifully seared salmon paired with tender steamed asparagus and a light serving of nutty brown rice. This dish balances heart-healthy fats and lean protein for a clean, satisfying dinner that delights your palate with fresh and subtle flavors.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/3 cup cooked Brown Rice
6 spears Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet under cool water and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once shimmering, place the salmon fillet skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through. Squeeze lemon juice over the fillet during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and cover. Steam for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Warm the cooked brown rice, if necessary, either in a microwave or in a small pot over low heat.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of brown rice. Optionally, finish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice or a sprinkle of freshly ground pepper.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed dinner.
