Enjoy a vibrant dinner featuring a crispy pistachio-crusted salmon paired with tender roasted asparagus and a tangy, creamy lemon quinoa. This dish delivers an enticing blend of textures and flavors that is both satisfying and nutritionally balanced.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup crushed Pistachios
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Greek Yogurt
2 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
On a small plate, combine the crushed pistachios with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lightly brush the salmon fillet with olive oil, then press the pistachios onto the top to form a crust.
Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus and toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper; arrange alongside the salmon.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily and the asparagus is tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa by reheating it if pre-cooked or cooking according to package instructions. Stir in lemon juice and Greek yogurt to create a creamy, tangy dressing.
Plate the salmon with a serving of roasted asparagus and a side of creamy lemon quinoa, then serve immediately.
