Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or use pre-cooked rice and set aside.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear, then 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, flesh-side down (skin-side up), and sear undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the skin side until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables just before serving for a bright, zesty finish.
