INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus Spears
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking tray.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender yet crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a teaspoon of olive oil. Add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through.
In a small saucepan, lightly heat the already cooked quinoa with a minced garlic clove, the juice of half a lemon, and freshly chopped parsley. Stir to evenly distribute the flavors.
Plate the salmon, spread a serving of lemon-herb quinoa beside it, and top with the roasted asparagus.
Garnish with extra parsley or a squeeze of lemon if desired. Serve immediately.
