Equipment

1 Grill Pan
1 Large Pot

Ingredients

1 pound salmon, fillets
½ cup black beans (Canned; rinsed and drained)
2 cups water (Can use vegetable broth instead)
1 tablespoon coconut oil
½ cup corn (Fresh or frozen)
1 cup brown rice

SALMON SEASONING INGREDIENTS:

1 teaspoon cumin, ground
2 teaspoon lemon, zest (Finely grated)
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper, ground

Instructions

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the brown rice and season with ¼ teaspoon salt.
Reduce the heat to simmer and cover with a lid. Cook for 30-35 minutes, and rice is tender. Remove from heat.
Thaw the frozen corn by placing it in a strainer and running hot water over to thaw. Combine the corn, black beans, and rice. Set aside.
Combine all the salmon seasoning ingredients. Set aside.
Lightly coat each salmon fillet with coconut oil. Sprinkle each salmon fillet with the salmon seasoning.
Heat one tablespoon of coconut oil in a 10-inch skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the fish and sear each side for 3 minutes, until the fish is opaque.
Remove from heat and serve with brown rice.
