Seared Salmon with Quinoa and Steamed Asparagus
Pan-seared wild salmon served over fluffy quinoa and tender steamed asparagus, finished with a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 ounces Sockeye Salmon Fillet
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa and cook according to package directions until fluffy, then set aside.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot pan and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 2-3 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Plate the quinoa and asparagus, top with the seared salmon, and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
