Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Herbed Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy herbed quinoa with tender steamed broccoli, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon and a buttery-smooth texture.
INGREDIENTS
3.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups Broccoli Florets
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley, chopped
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and crisp.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon is searing, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
In a small mixing bowl, fluff the warm cooked quinoa with a fork and stir in the chopped fresh parsley and half of the lemon juice.
Arrange the herbed quinoa and steamed broccoli on a plate alongside the seared salmon fillet.
Drizzle the remaining lemon juice over the top of the salmon just before serving for a bright finish.
