Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served with nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, featuring a perfectly crisp skin.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Wild Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh 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 stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact; sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon sears, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the crispy salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, then finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the fish and vegetables.
