INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy sear.
Season the salmon lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
Add the salmon fillet to the pan skin-side down and cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon cooks, prepare the quinoa by warming it if needed.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.
Drizzle the lemon-herb mixture over the quinoa or gently toss the quinoa with it.
Plate the lemon-herb quinoa as a base and top with the crispy pan-seared salmon.
Garnish with additional parsley or a lemon wedge if desired, then serve immediately.
