Seared Salmon Fillet with Quinoa and Steamed Asparagus
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz Atlantic Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Pinch of flaky sea salt and black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
While the salmon cooks, place the asparagus in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Plate the fluffy quinoa and top with the seared salmon fillet.
Arrange the steamed asparagus on the side and drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
