Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a fresh, vibrant dish featuring perfectly seared salmon paired with tender steamed broccoli and fluffy quinoa. This plate delivers succulent fish with a crisp, golden sear, complemented by the natural sweetness of broccoli and the nutty flavor of quinoa, all brought together with a hint of extra virgin olive oil and lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.1 oz Salmon Fillet (145g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
1 cup steamed Broccoli (156g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (5g)
1/4 Lemon (15g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) in the hot skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through but still moist. Squeeze a bit of lemon juice over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon is searing, steam the broccoli until bright green and tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions (if not pre-cooked), or simply reheat if already cooked.
Plate the quinoa and steamed broccoli, then top with the seared salmon. Garnish with additional lemon wedges if desired.
