Seared Salmon Filet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon with crispy skin served alongside nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.75 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
0.25 tsp Sea Salt
0.25 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until fluffy.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the 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 to 5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables just before serving for a bright finish.
