Crispy Skin Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Quinoa
Savor a beautifully balanced dish featuring a perfectly crispy skin salmon fillet paired with tender, roasted asparagus and nutty quinoa. A dash of lemon elevates the flavors, making it a light yet satisfying meal that's as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
90g Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Rinse the asparagus and trim the woody ends. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Score the skin lightly and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Place the salmon skin-side down in a hot, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
Warm the cooked quinoa if needed and fluff with a fork. Drizzle with lemon juice for a bright finish.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Squeeze extra lemon juice over the salmon if desired, and serve immediately.
