Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Quinoa
Enjoy a beautifully balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with crisp roasted asparagus and a serving of fluffy quinoa. This dish offers a delightful mix of textures and flavors, from the tender, juicy salmon to the lightly charred asparagus, rounded out by the nutty taste of quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
6 Asparagus spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the asparagus and set a skillet over medium-high heat for searing the salmon.
Toss the asparagus spears in a teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Once the skillet is hot, add the salmon skin-side down if applicable and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through. Adjust cooking time based on thickness.
While the salmon is searing and asparagus is roasting, reheat or prepare your cooked quinoa as needed.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Serve immediately and enjoy.
