INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
0.75 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1/2 Lemon
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the brown rice according to package directions so that you have 0.75 cup cooked rice. Set aside.
Trim the green beans and blanch them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender, then immediately transfer to an ice bath to preserve their vibrant color.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Squeeze half a lemon over the salmon during the final minute of cooking.
In a separate pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the blanched green beans and toss to coat. Sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until the beans are well infused with garlic and seasoned to taste.
Plate the salmon alongside the garlic green beans and a serving of brown rice. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired and enjoy your balanced, nutritious dinner.
