Seared Salmon Filet with Quinoa Pilaf and Wilted Spinach
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over fluffy quinoa pilaf and garlic-wilted spinach, finished with a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
8.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse quinoa thoroughly and cook according to package instructions using water or vegetable broth until fluffy.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side up and sear for 4-5 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Remove salmon from the pan and set aside to rest.
In the same pan, add the remaining oil and minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and toss until just wilted, then stir in the lemon juice.
Plate the quinoa pilaf, top with the wilted spinach, and place the seared salmon on top.
