INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme, chopped
1/2 Lemon
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season with salt and pepper if desired.
In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley, thyme, and grated lemon zest obtained from half a lemon.
Lightly coat the salmon with the herb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon skin-side down for about 3-4 minutes until crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the fish is just cooked through.
Warm the cooked quinoa if needed, and plate as a bed for the seared salmon.
Drizzle a little lemon juice over the fish before serving to enhance the fresh flavor.
