INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Herb Mix (Parsley, Dill, Thyme)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, combine the fresh herb mix and lemon juice with the olive oil.
Coat the salmon evenly with the herb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the herbs to the surface.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable.
Sear the salmon for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through but still moist.
While the salmon is cooking, warm the pre-cooked quinoa if needed or serve it at room temperature.
Plate the seared salmon on a bed of quinoa, and drizzle any remaining herb mixture over the top.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice if desired, and serve immediately.
