INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick pan over medium-high heat, sear the salmon fillet for about 3-4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the fish is just cooked through.
While the salmon is searing, combine the cooked quinoa in a mixing bowl with lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create a bright lemon-garlic quinoa.
Blanch or lightly steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes, then season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the salmon on a bed of the lemon-garlic quinoa, arranging the asparagus neatly alongside for a balanced, delicious dinner.
