Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Asparagus and Herb Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon served over a bed of herb-flecked quinoa with tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of bright, zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook according to package instructions until fluffy.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side up and sear for 4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Fold the chopped fresh parsley into the warm quinoa.
Plate the herb quinoa and asparagus alongside the seared salmon.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
