Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with nutty brown rice and tender-crisp asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive 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 olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure the skin gets crispy.
Cook the salmon for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until medium-rare.
While the salmon sears, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over an inch of boiling water and steam for 3 to 5 minutes until bright green.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Plate the salmon alongside the rice and asparagus, then drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
