Almond-Chive Salmon with a Side of Green Beans with Mushrooms

September 15, 2008 by Monica Nelson Leave a Comment

This is a very easy entree to put together, also very healthy with the Vitamin E coming from the almonds and niacin and Omega 3’s from the Salmon. You can use whatever herbs you have on hand like dill, thyme, basil, chives, or parsley.  I switch it up based on what I have.

It is basically breaded fish with out all the frying. I love the almonds together with the fish. I like to serve this with Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms (Recipe Follows), also very good for you. Note: I cook the Green Beans first and then the get salmon prepped while they are cooking.

ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH MUSHROOMS

Serves 6

6 cups quartered cremini mushrooms (1 lb)
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
5 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
Cooking spray
1 1/2 tbs olive oil
1 tbs chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
3/4 tsp salt

1. Preheat oven to 450 F.

2. Combine first 4 ingredients on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with thyme and pepper, toss to coat.
Bake at 450 F for 30 minutes or until beans are starting to lightly brown. Sprinkle with salt to combine.

ALMOND-CHIVE SALMON DISH

Serves 4

1/4 cup almonds
2 tbs chopped fresh chives
1 tbs chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp grated lemon rind
2 slices of bread, torn
1/2 tsp salt, divided
4 (6 oz) salmon fillets
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Cooking Spray
4 lemon wedges

1. Preheat oven to 400 F

2. Combine first 5 ingredients in a food processor, add 1/4 tsp salt. Process until finely chopped.

3. Sprinkle salmon with the remaining 1/4 tsp salt and pepper. Top the fillets evenly with the breadcrumb mixture; press gently to sick. Place fillets on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

4. Bake at 400 F for 10 mins or until fish flakes easily when tested by fork or until desired doneness. Serve with lemon wedges. Now combine both together and enjoy. Adapted from Cooking Light.
