Prepare the brown rice according to package directions or use pre-cooked rice to save time.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus and steam for 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, garnishing with a fresh lemon wedge if desired.
