Pan-Seared Salmon with Steamed Asparagus and Quinoa
Pan-seared salmon served over fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook in water or vegetable broth until the liquid is absorbed and the grains are fluffy.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam over boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 to 5 minutes without moving it to ensure a crisp exterior.
Flip the salmon carefully and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Arrange the cooked quinoa and steamed asparagus on a plate and top with the seared salmon.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice and finish with an extra sprinkle of flaky sea salt before serving.
