Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions or reheat pre-cooked rice until steaming.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus spears.
Place the asparagus in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water, cover, and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season lightly with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick 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 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes for medium doneness.
Arrange the brown rice and steamed asparagus on a plate.
Top with the seared salmon and finish the entire dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
