Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon with a crisp skin served alongside tender steamed asparagus and nutty brown rice, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Steamed Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact.
Sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then carefully flip the fillet.
Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the other side until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave.
Plate the salmon alongside the rice and asparagus, drizzling the fresh lemon juice over the fish and vegetables before serving.
