Seared Salmon Fillet with Quinoa and Garlic Sautéed Spinach
Pan-seared salmon served over a bed of fluffy quinoa and garlic-infused spinach, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon and a perfectly crisp skin.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup Cooked Quinoa
3 cups Fresh Spinach
1/2 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season the skin side with a pinch of sea salt.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add half of the olive oil, swirling to coat the pan.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and press gently with a spatula to ensure even contact.
Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes without moving it until the skin is golden and very crisp.
Flip the fillet carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque in the center.
Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and toss until just wilted, then stir in the pre-cooked quinoa and lemon juice to warm through.
Serve the salmon fillet over the bed of garlic spinach and quinoa.
