Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served with nutty brown rice and tender-crisp steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of bright, zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1/2 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the center is just opaque.
While the salmon sears, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 3-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small pot with a splash of water or in the microwave until heated through.
Arrange the salmon, rice, and asparagus on a plate and drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the fish and vegetables before serving.
