Seared Salmon Filet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild sockeye salmon with a crispy skin, served alongside nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus finished with bright lemon.
INGREDIENTS
9 oz Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the 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 to 5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125-130 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare.
While the salmon cooks, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4 to 5 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.
Plate the salmon alongside the rice and asparagus, drizzling the fresh lemon juice over the entire dish before serving.
