Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared sockeye salmon served over nutty brown rice with a side of tender-crisp steamed asparagus and a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the asparagus and trim away the woody ends.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While the salmon is searing, steam the asparagus for 3 to 5 minutes until it is bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the salmon over the brown rice with the asparagus on the side, finishing the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
