👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Sear & Assemble

Sear salmon 4-5 mins skin-side down, flip and finish. Serve over quinoa with veggies and tahini dressing.

❄️ Storing & Reheating Leftovers

Refrigeration: Allow the dish to cool to room temperature, then store in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days.

Reheating: Reheat in a skillet over medium-low heat with a small splash of water or olive oil, or in a 350°F (175°C) oven until thoroughly warmed. This preserves the delicate moisture without drying out the texture.
