Seared Salmon Fillet with Garlic Green Beans and Quinoa Pilaf
Pan-seared salmon served with garlicky green beans and fluffy quinoa pilaf, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon and a buttery, crisp skin.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup fresh Green Beans
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the green beans and trim the ends, then mince the garlic cloves.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F, then remove from the pan to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and the green beans, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Add the minced garlic to the beans and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a separate small pot or microwave.
Plate the salmon alongside the garlic green beans and quinoa pilaf, finishing the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
