Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Green Beans and Herb Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon and herb-flecked quinoa served with tender steamed green beans and a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Green Beans
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa by rinsing thoroughly and simmering in water or broth until all liquid is absorbed and grains are fluffy.
Steam the green beans in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 5 to 7 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet completely 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 or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to achieve a crispy exterior.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the center is just opaque.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and fold it into the warm quinoa along with half of the lemon juice.
Arrange the herb quinoa and steamed green beans on a plate, top with the seared salmon, and finish with the remaining bright squeeze of lemon.
