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 one tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Place the salmon in the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes on the first side until a golden-brown crust forms.
4
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through, then transfer to a plate to rest.
5
In the same skillet, add the remaining half tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and toss constantly for 1-2 minutes until just wilted and bright green.
7
Fluff the pre-cooked quinoa with a fork and plate it alongside the salmon and garlic spinach.
8
Finish the dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the salmon for a bright, zesty finish.
