INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tablespoon Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the salmon fillet on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs, chopped fresh parsley, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Drizzle olive oil over the salmon and then press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top of the fillet, ensuring an even herb crust.
Bake the salmon in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon bakes, warm the cooked quinoa in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave until heated through.
Plate the quinoa and top with the baked salmon. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
