Preparation
1
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water. Combine quinoa with 1 cup of water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
2
While quinoa cooks, preheat a pan over medium-high heat. Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
3
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the hot pan. Place the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky.
4
Steam or blanch the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes. You can also roast them alongside the salmon in an oven if preferred.
5
Slice the avocado into desired pieces.
6
Assemble your bowl: Start with a bed of cooked quinoa, then add the cooked salmon fillet, steamed broccoli, and avocado slices. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top for a bright finish.
