INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Broccoli
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a small drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, place the salmon skin-side down (if available) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crispy crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through but still moist in the center. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
While the salmon cooks, steam the broccoli. Bring a pot of water to a simmer with a steamer basket, add the broccoli florets, and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Heat the pre-cooked quinoa in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop until warmed through, about 1-2 minutes.
Plate the salmon alongside the steamed broccoli and a portion of quinoa. Garnish with a squeeze of lemon or fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
