Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Wild Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served alongside nutty wild rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of bright, zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Wild Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the wild rice thoroughly and cook according to package instructions until tender and grains have burst slightly.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side up and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to develop a golden-brown crust.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes on the other side until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket for 4 to 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Serve the seared salmon over the bed of wild rice with the steamed asparagus on the side, finishing the entire dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
