Flaky Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon-Herb Brown Rice
Enjoy a vibrant plate that pairs flaky pan-seared salmon with a zesty lemon-herb brown rice. The tender salmon is perfectly seasoned and seared to maintain its moisture, while the aromatic rice, infused with fresh lemon, parsley, and dill, creates a refreshing and well-balanced meal ideal for both lunch and dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
2 tbsp Fresh Dill
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Add the salmon fillet to the skillet, skin side down if applicable, and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is cooked through but still moist and flaky.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the lemon-herb brown rice by gently reheating the cooked brown rice in a small pan over low heat.
Finely mince the garlic and add it to the rice along with the juice of the half lemon, chopped fresh parsley, and chopped fresh dill. Stir well to combine and allow the warm rice to absorb the flavors for about a minute.
Plate the salmon alongside the lemon-herb brown rice. Garnish with a squeeze of extra lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, nutrient-rich meal.
