Seared Salmon with Steamed Broccoli and Lemon Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy lemon-infused quinoa with a side of tender steamed broccoli, finished with a bright and zesty citrus squeeze.
INGREDIENTS
4.6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup cooked Quinoa
1.3 cups Broccoli florets
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa and cook according to package instructions, then fluff with a fork and stir in fresh lemon zest and a splash of lemon juice.
While the quinoa cooks, cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and steam them over boiling water until tender-crisp, which takes about 5 minutes.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season lightly with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to ensure the skin becomes crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the lemon quinoa, top with the seared salmon fillet, and serve alongside the steamed broccoli with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
