INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Green Beans
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until desired doneness.
While the salmon cooks, steam or blanch the green beans until they become tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
In a small pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Toss the green beans in the garlic oil and add a squeeze of lemon juice.
Prepare the quinoa if not already done by reheating or fluffing it with a fork.
Plate the quinoa as the base, arrange the garlic green beans on the side, and top with the seared salmon. Drizzle a little extra lemon juice over the salmon if desired, and serve immediately.
