Seared Salmon with Garlic Spinach and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over fluffy brown rice and garlicky sautéed spinach, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon and a buttery, flaky texture.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Wild-Caught Salmon Fillet
0.75 cup Cooked Brown Rice
3 cups Fresh Baby Spinach
1.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions and set aside.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron 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.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the salmon from the pan and let it rest.
In the same pan or a separate skillet, add the remaining 0.5 tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and toss constantly until just wilted, then remove from heat.
Serve the seared salmon over the brown rice and garlic spinach, finishing the entire dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
