Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring a lightly pistachio-crusted salmon fillet paired with zesty lemon dill quinoa and crispy roasted green beans. This balanced plate offers a harmonious blend of textures and flavors—from the crunchy, nutty crust to the tender, flaky salmon, all accented by the bright lemon and herb notes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1/8 cup crushed unsalted pistachios
1/3 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup green beans
1/2 medium lemon (juice and zest)
1 tbsp fresh dill
Cooking spray or 1/2 tbsp olive oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper. Press the crushed pistachios onto the top of the salmon to form a crust.
Place the crusted salmon on a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and the pistachio topping is golden.
Meanwhile, toss the green beans with a light spray of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them onto another baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until they are crispy yet tender.
In a small saucepan, warm the cooked quinoa. Stir in fresh lemon juice, a little lemon zest, and chopped dill. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate the quinoa as a base, place the roasted green beans alongside, and top with the pistachio-crusted salmon.
Garnish with additional dill or a lemon wedge if desired, and serve immediately.
