Grilled Salmon with Quinoa and Roasted Vegetables

🥘 Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained
• 2 cups water or vegetable broth
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
• 1 large zucchini, sliced
• 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring the quinoa and water or broth to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the quinoa is tender and fluffy.
3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato, zucchini, and red bell pepper with 1 tbsp of olive oil, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
4. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon for 4-6 minutes per side or until cooked through.
5. To serve, divide the cooked quinoa among four plates, top with a grilled salmon fillet, and spoon the roasted vegetables alongside. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
