Ingredients

  • 130g Salmon Fillet
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g butternut squash
  • 80g asparagus
  • 20g lemon juice
  • 5g olive oil
  • 6g garlic
  • fresh parsley, thyme & black pepper
  • lemon wedge

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the butternut squash and asparagus, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon on a lined tray, brush with some of the sauce and bake at 200°C for 12-14 minutes until it flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Toss the protein in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and herbs before cooking, and squeeze over more lemon to finish.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the butternut squash and asparagus for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: quinoa first, then the veg and salmon, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the lemon wedge.
