Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Wild Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with nutty wild rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Wild Rice
1.5 cups Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the wild rice according to package directions until the grains are tender and slightly burst.
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 stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
While the salmon finishes, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Arrange the wild rice and steamed asparagus on a plate, top with the seared salmon, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
