Enjoy a delightful balance of flavors with a crispy pistachio crust on succulent salmon, accompanied by tender roasted asparagus and a zesty lemon-herb quinoa. This dish combines aromatic herbs with a satisfying crunch, making it a perfect wholesome meal for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 oz Pistachios, unsalted
4 Asparagus Spears
0.5 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Dill)
2 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Place the salmon on a parchment-lined baking tray. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
In a small food processor, add the pistachios and pulse until your desired coarse-crushed texture is achieved. Spread the crushed pistachios evenly over the top of the salmon, pressing lightly to adhere.
Arrange the asparagus spears next to the salmon on the baking tray. Drizzle the asparagus with half of the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa by mixing the cooked quinoa with lemon juice, fresh herbs, and the remaining olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once done, plate the salmon alongside the lemon-herb quinoa and roasted asparagus. Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious, flavorful meal.
