Seared Salmon with Garlic Green Beans and Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy quinoa with garlic-sautéed green beans, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon for a buttery-soft texture.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Green Beans, trimmed
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa and cook according to package instructions until light and fluffy.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat one teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side up in the pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness, then set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and the trimmed green beans.
Sauté the green beans for about 5 minutes until tender-crisp, tossing in the minced garlic during the final minute of cooking.
Plate the salmon over the bed of quinoa with the garlic green beans on the side, finishing the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
