Herb-Crusted Seared Salmon with Quinoa
Enjoy a beautifully seared salmon fillet accented with fresh herbs and a zesty hint of lemon, served atop a fluffy bed of quinoa. This dish balances rich flavors with a light touch, offering a perfect combination of tender fish and nutty quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
3/4 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Lemon wedge
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry using a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Lightly press the chopped fresh parsley onto the top surface of the salmon to create an herb crust.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through and has a nice golden crust on the outside.
While the salmon cooks, warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small pot or microwave until heated through.
Plate the quinoa as a bed on your serving dish and top with the seared salmon.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
