Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Herb Rice
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy herb-infused brown rice with tender steamed asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon Fillet
0.75 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp fresh Parsley, chopped
0.5 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Cook the brown rice according to package instructions until tender, then fluff with a fork and stir in the fresh chopped parsley.
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 shimmering.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact; sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until they are vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Plate the salmon over the bed of herb rice, arrange the asparagus on the side, and drizzle everything with fresh lemon juice before serving.
