INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
Approx. 50g Asparagus (1/4 bunch)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus and place on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, rinse the quinoa under cold water and set up to serve as a base. If not already cooked, follow package instructions to cook until fluffy.
Season the shrimp lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Mince the garlic cloves. Sauté garlic in the skillet for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the shrimp.
Sear the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. In the last minute of cooking, squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the shrimp and toss to coat.
Plate a serving of fluffy quinoa, top with the lemon garlic shrimp, and add the crispy roasted asparagus on the side.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
