INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 ounce crushed Pistachio Nuts
6 Asparagus Spears
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 lemon Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill (minced)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Place the salmon fillet on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle the crushed pistachios evenly over the top of the salmon, gently pressing them to adhere.
Arrange the asparagus spears around the salmon. Drizzle the asparagus with extra virgin olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and the pistachio crust is lightly toasted.
While the salmon and asparagus are baking, prepare the quinoa by gently reheating or fluffing it with a fork. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and minced dill.
Once baked, plate the pistachio-crusted salmon alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of lemon dill quinoa. Serve immediately and enjoy.
