INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Broccoli
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Dill)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a tiny drizzle of olive oil if desired, and spread it evenly on a baking sheet. Roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Meanwhile, season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon skin-side down (if it has skin) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, fresh herbs, and the remaining olive oil to create a zesty dressing.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa gently in a microwave or on the stovetop, then toss with the lemon-herb dressing to infuse flavor.
Plate the salmon with a generous serving of roasted broccoli and a side of lemon-herb quinoa. Serve immediately, enjoying the vibrant flavors and balanced textures.
