Golden Lemon-Herb Grilled Salmon
Fresh salmon fillets grilled to flaky perfection with a bright lemon-herb marinade, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and nutty quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon fillet
1.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh dill
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1.5 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or a heavy-bottomed grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 1 tsp of the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and finely chopped dill to create the marinade.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel, then brush with half of the prepared lemon-herb mixture and season with salt and pepper.
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and toss the spears with the remaining 0.5 tsp of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the salmon onto the grill skin-side down and cook for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to ensure a crispy skin.
Add the asparagus to the grill and flip the salmon, cooking both for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the salmon is opaque and the asparagus is charred.
Fluff the warm quinoa with a fork and plate it alongside the grilled asparagus.
Top with the salmon fillet and drizzle the remaining lemon-herb marinade over the entire plate before serving.
