INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Raw Spinach
3/4 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and nicely browned. Squeeze a little lemon over the fish during the last minute of cooking.
While the salmon is searing, rinse and drain the quinoa if not already cooked. Reheat or fluff the quinoa as needed.
In a separate pan, heat 3/4 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the raw spinach to the garlic and olive oil mixture, stirring frequently until the spinach wilts (about 2-3 minutes). Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a portion of quinoa and garlic sautéed spinach. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired, and serve immediately.
