Seared Salmon with Garlic Quinoa and Sautéed Spinach
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy garlic-infused quinoa and tender sautéed spinach, finished with a squeeze of bright, zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Heat 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side until the skin is crisp and the flesh is just opaque and flaky.
While the salmon cooks, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a separate large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the second skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
Add the fresh spinach to the garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until just wilted.
Stir the cooked quinoa into the spinach mixture and toss until heated through.
Plate the garlic quinoa and spinach, top with the seared salmon fillet, and drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
