Crispy Pan-Seared Salmon with Zesty Herb Quinoa and Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a vibrant combination of crispy salmon, zesty herb-infused quinoa, and tender roasted asparagus. The perfectly seared salmon enhances a subtle crunch while the quinoa, bursting with fresh herbs and lemon, elevates the dish to a delightful medley of flavors and textures.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
6 spears Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
2 tablespoons Fresh Dill
Pinch of Salt
Dash of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of salt and dash of black pepper.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until desired doneness.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the quinoa by gently mixing in lemon juice, chopped fresh parsley, and dill.
Toss the asparagus spears with a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast them in a preheated 400°F oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender but crisp.
Plate the herb quinoa as a base, top with the crispy pan-seared salmon, and arrange the roasted asparagus on the side.
Garnish with extra fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon if desired, then serve immediately.
