INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 oz Pistachios (raw, unsalted)
100 g Asparagus Spears
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Finely chop the pistachios and set aside. Season the salmon fillet lightly with salt and pepper.
Press the chopped pistachios onto the top of the salmon fillet to form a crust.
Place trimmed asparagus spears on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tsp of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Bake the asparagus alongside the salmon. Place salmon on a lightly greased baking tray or parchment paper and roast for about 10-12 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the pistachio crust is golden.
While baking, warm the cooked quinoa in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, adding a squeeze of lemon juice and a dash of salt to taste.
Plate the salmon with a side of roasted asparagus and a serving of lemon-infused quinoa. Serve immediately.
