Seared Salmon Fillet with Quinoa and Steamed Broccoli
Enjoy a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with fluffy quinoa and crisp steamed broccoli. This dish balances hearty protein, satisfying whole grains, and vibrant veggies, all accented with a touch of olive oil for a rich, savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups steamed Broccoli
1 tbsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water and combine with water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes until quinoa is fluffy and water is absorbed.
While the quinoa cooks, preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) in the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
In a separate pot or steamer basket, steam the broccoli for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Plate the cooked quinoa, top with the seared salmon fillet, and add the steamed broccoli on the side.
Drizzle a little extra olive oil over the broccoli if desired, and serve immediately.
