INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet (170g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (4.5g)
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill
1 Garlic Clove
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley, fresh dill, minced garlic, and lemon zest.
Brush the salmon lightly with olive oil on both sides.
Press the herb mixture onto the top of the salmon fillet to form a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
Place the salmon, herb side down first, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until it reaches your preferred level of doneness.
Serve the pan-seared herb crusted salmon over a bed of warm cooked quinoa.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
