Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared sockeye salmon served over fluffy brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, featuring a perfectly seasoned and crispy skin.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Sockeye Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup fresh Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
Fresh Lemon Wedge
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 non-stick or cast-iron 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.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears for 3-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, finishing with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
