INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet (~170g)
1 cup Asparagus (~134g)
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice (~108g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (~4.5g)
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Start by rinsing the salmon fillet and patting it dry with paper towels. Lightly season with a pinch of salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) in the skillet, searing for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes. Adjust cooking time based on thickness.
While the salmon is searing, prepare your asparagus by rinsing and trimming the woody ends. Steam the asparagus in a steamer or a covered pan with a little water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Reheat or prepare the cooked brown rice according to package instructions, if not already prepared.
To serve, plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a portion of brown rice, ensuring a balanced distribution on the plate.
