INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 Lemon (zest and juice)
1 teaspoon Fresh Dill
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the 5-ounce salmon fillet on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Season the salmon generously with salt, pepper, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1 teaspoon dried rosemary.
Add minced garlic over the salmon and sprinkle the fresh dill.
Zest the lemon over the salmon and then squeeze a little lemon juice on top for a bright, citrusy flavor.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon bakes, reheat or prepare 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa according to package instructions if not already prepared.
Serve the baked herb-crusted salmon over a bed of quinoa, garnished with an additional sprinkle of fresh dill if desired.
