Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet paired with tender steamed asparagus and nutty brown rice, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1.5 cups Fresh Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or use pre-cooked rice warmed through.
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough, woody ends off the stalks.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with 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, flesh-side down, and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While the salmon is searing, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4 to 5 minutes until bright green and tender.
Serve the seared salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Drizzle the entire plate with fresh lemon juice just before serving for a bright finish.
