Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Quinoa
Savor the rich flavors of a perfectly pan-seared salmon fillet coated in aromatic herbs, paired elegantly with fluffy quinoa. This dish offers a balance of lean protein and wholesome grains, accented by a touch of olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon for brightness.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Mixed Dried Herbs (Thyme & Rosemary)
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and the mixed dried herbs.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon, skin side down if applicable, in the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until cooked through to your preferred doneness.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the quinoa if not already done.
Plate the cooked quinoa and top with the herb-crusted salmon. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the top for a burst of freshness before serving.
