Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served over nutty brown rice and tender asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact; sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125-130°F for medium-rare.
While the salmon cooks, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 3-5 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Arrange the brown rice on a plate, top with the seared salmon, and place the asparagus alongside.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice and finish with a final sprinkle of flaky sea salt before serving.
