Seared Salmon Fillet with Roasted Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served with garlic-roasted asparagus and nutty brown rice, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon for a bright, zesty zing.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon
1.5 cups Asparagus spears
1/4 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic, minced
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears on the baking sheet with half of the olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 10 to 12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 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 another 3 to 4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small bowl.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and brown rice, then drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the fish just before serving.
