Seared Salmon with Creamy Garlic Spinach and Brown Rice
Enjoy a vibrant plate of seared salmon paired with a luscious creamy garlic spinach and hearty brown rice. This dish balances buttery, crispy salmon with fresh, garlicky sautéed spinach dressed in a light Greek yogurt cream, and perfectly cooked nutty brown rice, creating a symphony of flavors and textures for a satisfying dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
3/4 cup cooked Brown Rice
2 cups Baby Spinach
2 Garlic Cloves
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the brown rice according to package directions, aiming for 3/4 cup cooked per serving.
In a separate pan, heat the remaining 1 tsp olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic from 2 cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the baby spinach to the pan and sauté until just wilted. Remove from heat and stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt and lemon juice, mixing until well combined to create a creamy garlic spinach sauce.
Plate the brown rice, top with the creamy garlic spinach, and gently lay the seared salmon on top. Serve immediately while warm.
