Savor the delightful crunch of pistachio-crusted salmon paired with tender roasted asparagus and a zesty lemon-dill quinoa. This dish beautifully balances textures and bright flavors, offering a nutrient-rich meal that’s as appealing as it is satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
0.5 ounce Unsalted Pistachios (crushed)
6 spears Asparagus
0.25 cup Cooked Quinoa
0.5 medium Lemon
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the crushed pistachios on a small plate. Press the salmon fillet onto the pistachios to form a crust on the top side.
Arrange the salmon on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and arrange them around the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with 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.
While the salmon is baking, prepare the lemon-dill quinoa by combining the cooked quinoa with the juice of half a lemon and the chopped fresh dill in a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the salmon with a side of roasted asparagus and a serving of lemon-dill quinoa. Serve immediately.
