Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon served over nutty brown rice and vibrant steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of zesty fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Steamed Asparagus
1.5 teaspoons 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 extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice and fluff it with a fork before plating.
Arrange the salmon and asparagus over the brown rice and finish the dish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
