Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared sockeye salmon served with fluffy brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon and a hint of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Steamed Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Cook the brown rice according to package instructions until tender and fluffy.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for approximately 4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables just before serving for a bright finish.
