Seared Salmon Filet with Quinoa and Garlic Spinach
Experience a harmonious balance of rich, seared salmon paired with fluffy quinoa and garlicky sautéed spinach. This dinner delivers a delightful medley of textures and flavors—from the crispy outer sear on the salmon to the tender greens infused with garlic and olive oil, all elevated by a bright squeeze of lemon for an extra zing.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
2 cups raw Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
While the salmon is cooking, rinse the quinoa if using it raw and prepare as per package instructions until fluffy.
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the garlic in a tiny bit of olive oil for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the spinach and toss until just wilted. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the quinoa, top with the seared salmon, and serve the garlic spinach on the side.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon before serving for brightness.
