Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dinner of perfectly seared salmon paired with tender steamed broccoli and a modest serving of quinoa. This dish offers a perfect balance of lean protein and fresh vegetables, enhanced by a nutty grain for a hearty, clean eating meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Steamed Broccoli
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon skin-side down (if skin-on) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until you get a crispy crust.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes depending on thickness until the center is just opaque.
While the salmon cooks, steam the broccoli until tender yet still vibrant green, about 4-5 minutes.
Prepare quinoa if not pre-cooked: rinse 1/3 cup quinoa, then add to a small saucepan with water in a 1:2 ratio, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed; or use pre-cooked quinoa.
Plate the salmon fillet alongside the steamed broccoli and a serving of quinoa, and serve immediately.
