Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice with tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon
3/4 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 fresh Lemon
PREPARATION
Cook the brown rice in water or low-sodium broth until tender and fluffy, then set aside.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side up and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon finishes, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Serve the seared salmon over the bed of brown rice with the asparagus on the side, finished with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
