PREPARATION

1
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
2
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden.
4
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
5
While the salmon cooks, steam the asparagus spears for 3 to 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
6
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
7
Plate the fluffy quinoa as a base, top with the seared salmon fillet, and serve the steamed asparagus on the side.
8
Finish the dish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice over both the fish and the vegetables.
