Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Experience the vibrant flavors of perfectly seared salmon paired with tender steamed asparagus and a serving of fluffy brown rice. This dish harmoniously balances rich, flaky fish with fresh, crunchy asparagus while the nutty brown rice pulls everything together, making it a satisfying and wholesome dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup Brown Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet and pat dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if it has skin) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Drizzle with lemon juice during the last minute of cooking.
Meanwhile, steam the asparagus by placing them in a steamer basket over simmering water. Cover and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Prepare brown rice according to package instructions. For a quicker option, use pre-cooked or quick-cooking brown rice and warm it.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and brown rice, and serve immediately.
