Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a delightful plate of seared salmon paired with tender steamed broccoli and fluffy quinoa. The salmon is perfectly seared to achieve a crisp exterior while remaining moist inside, and is balanced by the light, fresh broccoli and nutty quinoa, making this dish a wholesome and delicious dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Drizzle olive oil in the skillet, then add the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) or presentation side down. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Gently flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until it reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked. Fluff with a fork and stir in lemon juice for brightness.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed broccoli and a serving of quinoa.
Finish with an extra light drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon if desired. Serve immediately.
