PREPARATION

1
Rinse the quinoa under cold water and cook according to package instructions until light and fluffy.
2
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and steam them for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
3
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
4
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
5
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side up and sear for 4 minutes without moving it to create a golden crust.
6
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness.
7
Fluff the quinoa with a fork and plate it alongside the steamed asparagus.
8
Top the quinoa with the seared salmon fillet, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
