Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Quinoa
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with fluffy quinoa and crisp steamed asparagus. The salmon is lightly seasoned and seared to lock in juices, while the quinoa and asparagus provide a satisfying, nutrient-packed accompaniment.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
6 spears Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a nice crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked.
Trim the asparagus ends and steam them for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the quinoa and steamed asparagus, garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired, and serve immediately.
