INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
2 tbsp Fresh Dill
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pinch Sea Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, combine finely chopped fresh parsley and dill.
Press the herb mixture onto the surface of the salmon to create a crust.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon, herb-side down, in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes until a crisp crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, ensuring it is cooked to your preferred doneness.
Meanwhile, warm the pre-cooked quinoa and toss it with lemon juice, a dash of salt, and a sprinkle of black pepper.
Serve the seared salmon atop a bed of quinoa and garnish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
