Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring a crispy, pan-seared salmon fillet seasoned with a blend of lemon and herbs, paired with fluffy lemon herb quinoa and perfectly roasted asparagus. This elegant meal strikes a balance between bright, refreshing flavors and hearty, satisfying textures.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/4 bunch Asparagus (approx 5 spears)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (parsley & dill)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa and cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, stir in lemon juice and fresh herbs; season with salt and pepper.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the lemon herb quinoa and top with the crispy salmon, adding the roasted asparagus on the side.
Drizzle any remaining lemon juice or a light squeeze of fresh lemon over the top, and serve immediately.
