Fresh Salmon with Quinoa
True North Salmon
Prepare quinoa according to package directions.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
Season salmon on both sides with salt and pepper to
taste. Heat a nonstick sauté pan with just enough oil
to coat over medium heat. Add salmon and cook on
one side until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn
the portions carefully with a spatula and cook for
another 3 minutes.
In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium
heat. Add onions and sauté along with garlic and
tomatoes until semi-soft. Add capers, olives and
arugula. Toss until the leaves are wilted. Season to
taste with salt and pepper.
Place the quinoa in the center of 4 plates, set the
salmon on top and distribute the tomato-arugula
mixture evenly next to the portions. Garnish with
chives. Makes 4 servings.
