Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon served over nutty brown rice with a side of tender steamed asparagus, finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup fresh Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea 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 down and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact; cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F or your preferred level of doneness.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the brown rice and top with the seared salmon fillet.
Arrange the steamed asparagus on the side and drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
