INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
3/4 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup steamed Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon fillet in the skillet, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Warm the cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or microwave, and fluff with a fork.
Plate the quinoa as a base, arrange the steamed asparagus beside it, and top with the seared salmon.
Finish with a drizzle of lemon juice over the salmon and a light sprinkle of salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
