Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon-Dill Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over zesty lemon-dill brown rice alongside crisp-tender asparagus for a bright and refreshing meal.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz salmon fillet
0.5 cup brown rice, cooked
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan, flesh-side down, and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to develop a golden-brown crust.
Carefully flip the salmon fillet and continue cooking for 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water for 3-5 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
In a small mixing bowl, fluff the warm cooked brown rice with a fork and stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped dill.
Plate the lemon-dill rice immediately, topping it with the pan-seared salmon and serving the steamed asparagus on the side.
