Seared Salmon with Lemon-Garlic Green Beans and Quinoa
Enjoy a light and flavorful dinner featuring delicately seared salmon paired with crisp lemon-garlic green beans and a side of fluffy quinoa. This plate combines vibrant citrus notes with savory garlic, creating a balanced dish that is both satisfying and clean.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Green Beans
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Unsalted Butter
1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of the lemon, minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Let the salmon marinate in the lemon garlic mixture for about 10 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated salmon. Sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through.
Meanwhile, steam or blanch the green beans until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
In a separate small pan, warm the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of butter. Toss the cooked green beans in the pan along with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Prepare quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked.
Plate the seared salmon, arrange the lemon-garlic green beans alongside, and add the serving of quinoa. Garnish with extra lemon wedges if desired.
