Savor the delightful contrast of a crunchy pistachio crust paired with tender, juicy salmon and perfectly roasted asparagus drizzled with lemon-herb olive oil. This dish strikes a balance between crisp textures and vibrant fresh flavors, making it a nourishing and elegant meal any time of the day.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 oz Pistachios, unsalted (crushed)
8 Asparagus Spears
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Fresh Herbs (thyme and parsley)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a shallow dish, combine the crushed pistachios with the fresh herbs. Press the top side of the salmon firmly into the mixture to create an even crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Sear the salmon, crust side down, for 2 minutes until it starts to crisp up.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or move the salmon to a baking sheet) and bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
While the salmon bakes, prepare the asparagus by placing the spears on a baking sheet. Drizzle with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10 minutes, until tender and slightly charred at the edges.
Plate the crispy pistachio-crusted salmon alongside the lemon-herb roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
