Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon served over nutty brown rice with tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Steamed Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet 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 the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula to ensure the skin becomes crispy.
Sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden, then flip the fillet carefully.
Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the other side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Serve the seared salmon over the bed of brown rice with the steamed asparagus on the side, garnished with a fresh lemon wedge.
