Seared Salmon Fillet with Quinoa and Lemon-Garlic Asparagus
Crispy pan-seared salmon served over fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus sautéed with garlic and lemon for a bright, zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water and cook according to package directions until fluffy.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat one teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness is reached, then remove from the pan.
In the same skillet, add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and the minced garlic.
Add the asparagus spears and sauté for 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the asparagus and toss to coat.
Serve the salmon over a bed of quinoa with the lemon-garlic asparagus on the side.
