INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet (142g)
2 tbsp Crushed Raw Pistachios (15g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1/2 Lemon (zest and juice, ~30g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Using a food processor or mortar and pestle, pulse the raw pistachios until coarsely chopped. Set aside.
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Press the salmon fillet into the crushed pistachios to create an even, crispy crust.
Arrange the pistachio-crusted salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Trim the woody ends from the asparagus and place them on another baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze lemon juice over the asparagus, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven. Roast the asparagus for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes until it flakes easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove both the salmon and asparagus from the oven. Finish the asparagus with a sprinkle of lemon zest for an extra burst of aroma.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted lemon asparagus and serve immediately.
