INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the olive oil to coat the pan.
Place the salmon fillet skin side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While the salmon is cooking, rinse the quinoa and prepare it according to package instructions if not already cooked. Keep it warm.
In a separate pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the garlic, stirring frequently until the spinach is wilted, roughly 2 minutes.
Plate the cooked quinoa as a base, then top with the seared salmon fillet and garlic sautéed spinach on the side. Serve immediately.
