INGREDIENTS
5 oz Scallops (142 g)
1 cup Asparagus (134 g)
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice (108 g)
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil (6.7 g)
1/4 Lemon
1 Garlic clove
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the scallops, then season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, minced garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the scallops and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure proper searing.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice if necessary.
Plate the rice, top with the roasted asparagus, and arrange the seared scallops on top. Finish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
