Salmon contains essential fatty acids to support brain and heart health.
1 Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the salmon fillets and leave to marinate for 20 min. While the salmon is marinating, soak the quinoa in a bowl of water for the same amount of time.
2 Add the quinoa to a dry saucepan set over a medium heat and toast the grains for a few min. Boil 1 3/4 cups water, then add it to the pan of quinoa along with the paprika, sweetcorn and some freshly ground black pepper. Simmer for 15 min, then plate up with the watercress.
3 Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over a medium-low heat. Transfer the marinated fillets to the pan, skin side down, pressing them gently for the first 30 sec. Cook for about 6 min until the top side begins to turn opaque, then flip the fillets over and cook on the other side for a further 3–4 min until cooked through.
Serve salmon next to quinoa and watercress mix.
