Seared Salmon with Quinoa and Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a delicious, protein-packed seared salmon paired with fluffy quinoa and roasted asparagus, drizzled lightly with olive oil for a burst of flavor. This balanced dish offers tender, perfectly cooked salmon, nutty quinoa, and crisp asparagus, making each bite a harmony of textures and tastes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
8 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Pat the salmon dry and season with salt and pepper (or your preferred seasoning).
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the salmon fillet, skin-side down first if applicable, for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the salmon is nearly cooked through.
Meanwhile, toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
Warm or fluff the 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Plate the quinoa as a base, top with the seared salmon, and arrange the roasted asparagus around. Serve warm and enjoy!
