INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
6 Asparagus Spears
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place 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 for medium doneness.
While the salmon is searing, steam or lightly sauté the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes.
Prepare the quinoa by warming it if needed and fluffing with a fork.
Plate the quinoa as the base, arrange the asparagus on the side, and place the seared salmon on top.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon over the salmon and serve immediately.
