Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon Quinoa
Fresh salmon fillets pan-seared until the skin is perfectly crisp, served over a bed of zesty lemon-infused quinoa and tender roasted asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon fillet
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Avocado oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press lightly with a spatula for 10 seconds to ensure even contact.
Cook the salmon for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
While the salmon rests, toss the warm cooked quinoa with lemon juice, lemon zest, and minced garlic in a small bowl.
Steam or lightly sauté the asparagus spears until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Plate the lemon quinoa, top with the pan-seared salmon, and serve alongside the asparagus.
