Crispy Pistachio-Crusted Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Fluffy Quinoa
Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring a crispy pistachio-crusted salmon fillet paired with tender roasted asparagus and a serving of fluffy quinoa, offering a delightful balance of savory flavors and textures perfect for a nourishing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 oz Unsalted Pistachios, chopped
100 g Asparagus Spears
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a food processor or a mortar and pestle, pulse the unsalted pistachios until coarsely chopped. Set aside.
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel. Press the chopped pistachios onto the top of the salmon fillet to create a crust.
Place the crusted salmon on one side of the baking sheet.
On the other side of the baking sheet, arrange the asparagus spears. Drizzle lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
While the salmon and asparagus are roasting, prepare the quinoa if not already done. Heat it gently over low heat or reheat it in the microwave until warm and fluffy.
Plate the salmon alongside a serving of roasted asparagus and a portion of fluffy quinoa. Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed dinner.
