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 bright lemon and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
9 ounces Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup fresh Asparagus
1 tablespoon Avocado Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Carefully place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and press down lightly with a spatula to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and crispy.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for a perfect medium-rare.
While the salmon sears, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over an inch of boiling water, cover, and steam for 3-5 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, then drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
