Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over nutty brown rice and tender asparagus, finished with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Wild-Caught Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1.5 teaspoons Avocado Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of 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 but not smoking.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact; sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
While the salmon sears, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 3-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125-130 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, then finish the entire dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
