Seared Salmon Fillet with Steamed Broccoli and Herbed Quinoa
Pan-seared wild salmon served over fluffy herbed quinoa and tender steamed broccoli, finished with a bright squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Wild Atlantic Salmon
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups Steamed Broccoli florets
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook in water or vegetable broth according to package instructions until all liquid is absorbed and the grain is fluffy.
Steam the broccoli florets over boiling water for 5-7 minutes until they reach a tender-crisp texture and vibrant green color.
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until desired doneness.
In a small bowl, toss the cooked quinoa with the fresh chopped parsley and half of the lemon juice.
Plate the salmon alongside the herbed quinoa and steamed broccoli, drizzling the remaining lemon juice over the fish before serving.
