INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, mix the chopped fresh parsley and minced garlic with a drizzle of olive oil.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Press the herb mixture onto the top of the salmon to form a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and once shimmering, place the salmon fillet skin-side down.
Cook the salmon for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your liking.
Heat or prepare the cooked quinoa if not already done. Plate the quinoa and place the salmon on top.
Squeeze a lemon wedge over the salmon for a fresh burst of flavor and serve immediately.
