Pan-Seared Salmon with Quinoa and Roasted Asparagus
Crisp-skinned salmon fillet seared until golden and served over fluffy quinoa with a side of lemon-roasted asparagus, finished with a bright squeeze of citrus.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
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 half of the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 10 to 12 minutes until tender and slightly charred at the tips.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 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 to 5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
Carefully flip the fillet and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the salmon is cooked to your preferred level of doneness.
Arrange the warm quinoa on a plate, top with the pan-seared salmon, and serve alongside the roasted asparagus with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
