Seared Salmon with Creamy Quinoa and Steamed Asparagus
Enjoy a beautifully balanced plate featuring perfectly seared salmon paired with creamy quinoa enriched with a hint of tangy feta cheese, and tender steamed asparagus. This dish delivers a harmonious blend of textures and flavors, ensuring each bite is both nutritious and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 oz Feta Cheese
1 serving (approx. 90g) Steamed Asparagus
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a small drizzle of olive oil.
When the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
While the salmon is cooking, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions. For extra flavor, cook it in vegetable broth instead of water.
Once the quinoa is cooked, gently fold in crumbled feta cheese to add a creamy, tangy note.
Steam the asparagus until tender yet crisp, which should take about 4-5 minutes.
Plate the seared salmon on a bed of creamy quinoa and arrange the asparagus on the side.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful dinner.
