Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet with crispy skin served over nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
4.8 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
2 tsp Avocado Oil
1/2 Lemon
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until steaming.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is 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 without moving it until the skin is crispy and releases easily from the pan.
Flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is opaque and reaches your desired level of doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, finishing the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
