Seared Salmon with Garlic Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with tender garlic-infused asparagus and nutty brown rice, finished with a squeeze of zesty fresh lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
Fresh Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or use pre-cooked rice warmed through.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a high-quality non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil, minced garlic, and trimmed asparagus spears.
Sauté the asparagus for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and fragrant.
Plate the salmon over the brown rice with the garlic asparagus on the side.
Finish the dish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a bright, zesty finish.
