Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Quinoa
Pan-seared wild salmon served over fluffy quinoa and roasted asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Wild Atlantic Salmon Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Lemon wedge and sea salt for seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with one teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt.
Spread the asparagus on the baking sheet and roast for 10 to 12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side up and sear for 4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or microwave if needed.
Plate the fluffy quinoa, top with the roasted asparagus, and place the seared salmon on top.
Finish the dish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
