Herb-Crusted Seared Salmon with Quinoa
Enjoy this vibrant plate of seared wild salmon accented with a fresh herb crust, paired with fluffy quinoa. The bright flavors of lemon zest, parsley, and dill make every bite refreshing, while the seared exterior of the salmon seals in its delicate, rich taste.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 tbsp Fresh Dill, chopped
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Mix the chopped parsley, dill, and lemon zest in a small bowl to form the herb crust.
Press the herb mixture onto the top surface of the salmon fillet, ensuring an even coating.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon, herb-side down first.
Sear the salmon for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.
While the salmon is searing, warm the cooked quinoa if necessary.
Plate the seared salmon atop a bed of quinoa and garnish with any extra fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon, if desired.
