Enjoy a deliciously balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet accompanied by fragrant garlic-infused quinoa and crisp roasted asparagus drizzled with olive oil. A harmonious blend of vibrant textures and flavors creates an elegant meal that's as nutritious as it is satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Trim the asparagus and toss in 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender.
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, sauté minced garlic in a splash of olive oil until fragrant, then add the quinoa and a bit of water or broth. Simmer until quinoa is heated through and infused with garlic flavor.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden and the fish is just cooked through.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of garlic quinoa and roasted asparagus. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the dish if desired, and serve immediately.
