Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice and tender asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
1 wedge Fresh Lemon
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium 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 even contact; sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water, cover, and steam for 3 to 4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and asparagus, finishing the dish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
