INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1/8 cup Unsalted Pistachio Kernels
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the asparagus. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle a pinch of salt and garlic powder, and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender.
While asparagus roasts, finely chop the pistachio kernels. Pat the salmon fillet dry and season with salt and pepper.
Press the chopped pistachios onto the top of the salmon to create an even crust.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the salmon, pistachio crust side down for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned, then gently flip and sear the other side for another 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and fresh dill to create the creamy sauce. Adjust the seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the salmon, drizzle the lemon-dill sauce over the top, and serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
