Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild salmon served with nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon and flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Steamed Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until steaming.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 4-6 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it to achieve a crisp exterior, then carefully flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and asparagus, finishing with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
