Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Brown Rice
Pan-seared wild sockeye salmon served with nutty brown rice and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Wild Sockeye Salmon fillet
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus spears
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice ahead of time according to package instructions and keep warm.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus spears.
Steam the asparagus for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan and sear for 4 minutes without moving it to develop a golden crust.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the fish and vegetables before serving.
