Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared salmon fillet served with tender steamed asparagus and nutty brown rice, featuring a perfectly crispy skin.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
0.25 tsp Garlic Powder
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season the flesh side with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and press down lightly with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125-130°F for medium-rare.
While the salmon sears, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small saucepan with a splash of water or in the microwave.
Serve the salmon alongside the rice and asparagus, finishing the entire plate with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
