Dijon mustard, honey, and nuts compliment the mild flavour and flaky, buttery texture of salmon perfectly. Add a side of roasted tomatoes and asparagus and this satisfies the nutritional requirements for a complete and healthy quick meal.

1 lb (450 g) salmon fillets
1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil
2 tsp (10 mL) Dijon mustard
1 tsp (5 mL) honey
1/4 cup (38 g) chopped pistachios
1/4 cup (27 g) panko crumbs
1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped parsley
1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil
1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt
1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) pepper

 1 1/2 lb (675 g) asparagus, trimmed
1 cup (150 g) cherry tomatoes
1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt
1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) pepper

 

  1.   Preheat oven to 400° F (220° C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and spray with vegetable oil.
  2.   In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp (5 mL) olive oil, mustard, and honey. Spread overtop of salmon.
  3.   In another bowl mix pistachios, panko, parsley, 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil, and salt and pepper. Sprinkle overtop salmon and put salmon on baking sheet.
