INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup steamed Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Optionally, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of lemon zest for brightness.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for approximately 3-4 minutes until a crispy crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the fish is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the asparagus until just tender, about 4-5 minutes. Drizzle the steamed asparagus with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Warm the cooked brown rice if needed, or serve at room temperature as a hearty base for the salmon and asparagus.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus. Garnish with a lemon wedge for an extra burst of flavor if desired, and serve immediately.
