Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Green Beans and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice and tender green beans, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon for a bright, zesty bite.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Wild Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup fresh Green Beans
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until steaming.
Trim the ends of the green beans and steam them in a basket over boiling water for 5 to 7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a proper sear and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon in the hot skillet skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then carefully flip the fillet.
Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the second side until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed green beans, then drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
