Pistachio-Crusted Baked Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Enjoy a delightful twist on classic baked salmon with a crunchy pistachio crust. The tender, flaky salmon is enhanced by the nutty flavor of crushed pistachios, paired with vibrant roasted asparagus and a bright lemon finish. A meal that balances texture, taste, and nutrition effortlessly.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
15 grams raw unsalted Pistachios (crushed)
6 Asparagus Spears
1/2 Lemon
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
On a baking tray lined with parchment paper, arrange the salmon fillet. Drizzle with olive oil, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
Finely crush the pistachios in a food processor or using a rolling pin. Press the crushed pistachios onto the top of the salmon to form a crust.
Trim the tough ends of the asparagus and place them on another baking sheet. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Place both the salmon and asparagus in the oven. Roast the asparagus for about 10-12 minutes until tender, and bake the salmon for about 12-15 minutes until it flakes easily with a fork.
While cooking, zest the lemon and squeeze the juice over the salmon once it is out of the oven for a burst of freshness.
Serve the pistachio-crusted salmon with the roasted asparagus and enjoy!
