Seared Salmon with Lentil Pilaf and Garlic Sautéed Kale
Pan-seared salmon with crisp skin served over a hearty blend of quinoa and lentils with garlicky kale and a squeeze of bright lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.75 cup Cooked Lentils
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Raw Kale, chopped
1.5 tablespoons Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Mix the cooked quinoa and lentils in a small bowl with a pinch of sea salt to create the pilaf base.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat half a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until opaque throughout, then set aside to rest.
Wipe the skillet clean, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the chopped kale and a tablespoon of water, cooking for 3-4 minutes until the leaves are bright green and tender.
Arrange the lentil and quinoa pilaf on a plate, top with the sautéed kale and seared salmon, and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
