INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
6 Asparagus Spears
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for the asparagus.
Rinse the asparagus and trim the woody ends. Place them on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and lightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper or your favorite herbs.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon fillet skin-side down if applicable, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through but still moist.
Prepare the cooked quinoa if not already done. Warm it slightly in a small pot or microwave.
Plate the dish by placing a generous serving of quinoa on the plate, top with the crispy salmon, and arrange the roasted asparagus on the side.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-rich meal.
