INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1/4 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Place the salmon in the skillet, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the interior is just opaque.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus in a steamer or in a covered pan with a splash of water for about 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Prepare the brown rice if not already cooked. Use 1/4 cup of cooked brown rice as a side.
Plate the salmon with the steamed asparagus and brown rice, and finish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
