Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with nutty brown rice and tender-crisp steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.25 fresh Lemon
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or use pre-cooked rice warmed through.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and steam them for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of 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 up and sear for 4 minutes without moving it to develop a golden crust.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Finish the dish by squeezing the fresh lemon wedge over the salmon and vegetables for a bright, clean flavor.
