Seared Salmon Filet with Steamed Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a perfectly seared salmon filet paired with tender, steamed broccoli and a side of fluffy quinoa. The dish balances rich, buttery salmon with the clean crunch of broccoli and the nutty undertones of quinoa, making it an ideal dinner that is both satisfying and nutritionally balanced.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Filet (170g)
1 cup Steamed Broccoli (156g)
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa (71g)
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a small drizzle of oil.
Place the salmon filet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crispy crust forms.
Flip the salmon and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon is searing, prepare the steamed broccoli: bring a pot of water to a simmer and steam the broccoli florets for about 5-6 minutes until tender yet still vibrant.
Prepare the quinoa if not pre-cooked by rinsing well and simmering in water (using a 2:1 water-to-quinoa ratio) until fluffy, then measure out about 1/3 cup for the dish.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed broccoli and a serving of quinoa.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon over the salmon for extra brightness, if desired.
