Pan-Seared Citrus Herb Salmon with Quinoa
Savor the bright flavors of citrus and fresh herbs in this perfectly pan-seared salmon served over a bed of fluffy quinoa. The dish is accented with a splash of lemon, a hint of garlic, and just the right drizzle of olive oil, creating a balanced meal that’s as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, combine the juice from half a lemon, minced garlic, and chopped fresh parsley.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) in the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through.
During the last minute of cooking, drizzle the lemon-herb mixture over the salmon to infuse flavor.
Serve the salmon atop a bed of cooked quinoa and garnish with any remaining herbs or a lemon wedge.
