Enjoy this vibrant dish featuring a tender 5-ounce salmon fillet encrusted with finely chopped pistachios and complemented by crisp roasted asparagus with a refreshing lemon-herb drizzle. A perfect balance of savory, nutty, and citrus notes to delight your palate.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz salmon fillet
1/8 cup chopped unsalted pistachios (~15g)
6 asparagus spears
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh dill
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the asparagus spears. Drizzle with olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the chopped pistachios on a small plate. Gently press the top side of the salmon fillet into the pistachios so they adhere evenly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon, pistachio-side down, and sear for about 2-3 minutes until the crust is golden.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
Remove the salmon and asparagus from heat. Drizzle the salmon with lemon juice and sprinkle fresh dill over both the salmon and asparagus.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and enjoy your nutritious, flavorful meal.
