INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon (zest & juice)
1/4 medium Orange (juice)
1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the salmon fillet on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and sprinkle the fresh thyme.
Using your fingers, gently rub the seasonings into the salmon. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
Roast the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until it is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is roasting, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked, warming it gently on the stovetop.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest and juice with a splash of orange juice, and toss with the cooked quinoa. Stir in chopped fresh parsley for brightness.
Once salmon is done, plate a generous portion of citrus quinoa and top with the herb-roasted salmon.
Finish with an extra light drizzle of olive oil if desired and serve warm.
