Pistachio-Crusted Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a delightful twist on a classic dish featuring a tender salmon fillet encrusted with crunchy, finely chopped pistachios and paired with perfectly roasted asparagus spears. The rich nutty flavor of pistachios complements the savory salmon while a hint of lemon zest adds a fresh burst of brightness, creating a balanced meal that satisfies both in taste and nutrition.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 oz Pistachios, unsalted (chopped)
6 Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the salmon fillet on a lined baking tray and pat dry with a paper towel.
Finely chop the pistachios and mix with the lemon zest. Press this mixture gently onto the top of the salmon to form an even crust.
Arrange the asparagus spears on another baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over them and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Place both salmon and asparagus in the preheated oven. Roast the asparagus for about 10-12 minutes until tender, and bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes or until the flesh flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately, enjoying the crunch of the pistachio crust and the fresh roasted asparagus alongside the flavorful salmon.
