Savor a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with vibrant steamed asparagus and hearty brown rice. The dish is finished with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon, making it an ideal balance of lean protein, complex carbs, and healthy fats.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Asparagus
1.5 cups Cooked Brown Rice
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 4-5 minutes until a crispy crust forms.
Flip the salmon gently and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until just cooked through. Remove from heat and squeeze fresh lemon juice on top.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus in a steamer or a covered pan with a small amount of water for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Reheat or cook the brown rice as per package instructions. If using pre-cooked rice, warm it up gently and stir in the olive oil.
Plate the dish by serving the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a generous serving of brown rice. Optionally, drizzle a little more lemon juice or olive oil if desired.
