Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Quinoa
Enjoy a delicate plate of seared salmon paired with vibrant steamed broccoli and a tiny serving of quinoa. The salmon is perfectly pan-seared to bring out its rich, buttery flavor while the broccoli adds freshness and crunch, and the lightly nutty quinoa rounds out the plate for a meal that's both satisfying and in line with your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Broccoli
1/8 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a small amount of olive oil (optional, if desired within calorie limits) and place the salmon skin-side down. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from the pan and let rest briefly.
While the salmon is cooking, steam the broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa gently on the stovetop or in the microwave until heated through.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed broccoli and a small mound of quinoa. Garnish with a squeeze of lemon if desired and serve immediately.
