Crispy Pistachio-Crusted Salmon with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a delightful twist on a classic salmon dish where a crunchy, pistachio crust meets tender, juicy salmon paired with bright roasted asparagus. This dish offers a unique balance of textures and flavors, combining nutty, savory crust with the fresh, vibrant taste of asparagus for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
20 grams Unsalted Pistachios
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Finely grind the unsalted pistachios in a food processor until they form a coarse meal. In a shallow dish, combine the ground pistachios with lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Pat the salmon dry with paper towels. Brush the salmon lightly with olive oil, then press the top side of the fillet into the pistachio mixture to form a crust.
Place the crusted salmon on a lined baking sheet. Arrange trimmed asparagus spears around the salmon. Drizzle any remaining asparagus with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and the asparagus is tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
