INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 oz Shelled Pistachios
6 spears Fresh Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Zest
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillet. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the pistachios in a food processor or blender. Pulse until coarsely chopped, then stir in the lemon zest.
Using your fingers or a spoon, gently press the pistachio mixture onto the top of the salmon fillet to form a crust.
Arrange the salmon on the baking sheet. In a bowl, toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Place the asparagus around the salmon on the baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven, squeeze a little extra lemon juice if desired, and serve immediately.
