Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.6 oz Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until steaming.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus spears and steam them for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
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 shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes for medium doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, finishing with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the entire dish.
