INGREDIENTS
8 oz Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 Lemon wedge
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa by rinsing it under cold water and cooking according to package instructions until fluffy.
Rinse and trim the asparagus. Steam the asparagus in a steamer or over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Pat the salmon dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon fillet skin-side down. Sear for about 4-5 minutes without moving to develop a crisp crust.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the seared salmon alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Squeeze the lemon wedge over the top before serving for a bright, fresh finish.
