INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Mix chopped fresh parsley with lemon juice. Brush the salmon with olive oil and press the herb mixture onto the top to create a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the salmon skin-side down for about 3-4 minutes or until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
While the salmon is cooking, reheat or prepare the cooked quinoa according to package instructions.
Plate the quinoa and top with the herb-crusted salmon. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
