Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Quinoa
Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring pan seared salmon perfectly crusted with fresh herbs, complemented by a light and fluffy bed of quinoa infused with aromatic lemon zest and garlic—a balanced meal that’s as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, fresh dill, and lemon zest.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until the crust forms, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon is cooking, warm up the pre-cooked quinoa in a saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Plate the quinoa as a bed and top with the herb-crusted salmon. Optionally, drizzle a little extra olive oil or squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top before serving.
