INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Almond Flour
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, chopped parsley, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Lightly brush the salmon with olive oil and then press it into the almond flour mixture, ensuring an even coating on the top side.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the salmon, crust side down, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the crust is golden.
Flip the salmon and reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon cooks, warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Plate the quinoa as a base, then top with the herb-crusted salmon. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
