Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron or stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the skillet and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes perfectly 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 is searing, place the asparagus spears in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice in a small pot with a splash of water or in the microwave until fluffy.
Plate the salmon alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus, finishing the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice and an extra sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
