Method

Step 1 of 5

For quinoa salad, combine quinoa and 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Cool to room temperature in a large salad bowl.

Step 2 of 5

For the dressing, using a microplane finely grate a teaspoon of orange rind into a medium bowl, add juice of half the orange. Stir in oil, honey, and tahini. Season with salt & pepper.

Step 3 of 5

Preheat oven to 200°C fan-forced. Score fish through the skin at 2cm intervals. Place lemon slices on a baking paper-lined oven tray, top with fish skin-side up. Combine sumac and coriander in a bowl. Season. Rub over the fish skin. Drizzle with a little olive oil. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.

Step 4 of 5

Add spinach, pepitas, halved tomatoes, diced capsicum and chickpeas to quinoa. Add dressing. Season and toss to coat.

Step 5 of 5

Place a serve of quinoa salad onto plates and top with snapper. Tip 1: Leftover quinoa salad is great the next day for lunch with a small can or tuna or red salmon. Tip 2: You can swap snapper for other firm white fish fillets.
