Seared Salmon with Lemon-Garlic Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild sockeye salmon served alongside tender lemon-garlic asparagus and nutty brown rice, finished with a bright and zesty citrus squeeze.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
0.35 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1.5 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat one teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness.
Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining half teaspoon of olive oil and the asparagus spears.
Sauté the asparagus for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp, adding the minced garlic in the last minute of cooking.
Deglaze the pan by pouring the lemon juice over the asparagus, scraping up any flavorful bits from the salmon.
Serve the seared salmon alongside the lemon-garlic asparagus and the warmed brown rice.
