Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Quinoa
Pan-seared wild salmon served over fluffy quinoa and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa by simmering in water or vegetable broth until all liquid is absorbed and the grain is fluffy.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque in the center.
Arrange the quinoa and steamed asparagus on a plate, top with the seared salmon, and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
