INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until just cooked and nicely caramelized.
While the salmon is searing, prepare the quinoa by warming it in a small pot with a tablespoon of lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt, stirring until heated through.
Arrange the asparagus spears on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Plate the lemon garlic quinoa, place the seared salmon on top, and add the roasted asparagus on the side.
Finish with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon for a bright, zesty finish.
