Cashew Crusted Salmon with Bok Choy
Cashew-crusted salmon offers a crunchy, nutty exterior paired with tender, flaky fish, served alongside lightly sautéed bok choy. This dish balances rich textures and fresh greens for a flavorful, wholesome meal.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 6 salmon fillets
- 1/3 cup honey mustard
- 2 tablespoons onion flakes
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup finely chopped dry-roasted cashews
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bunch bok choy, rinsed well and chopped
Directions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush honey mustard all over salmon. Season both sides of salmon with onion flakes and black pepper. Place cashews in a shallow dish, add four of the salmon fillets and turn to coat.
- Place all salmon fillets in hot skillet and cook 3 minutes per side, until fork-tender.
- Heat remaining olive oil in separate large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add bok choy and cook 2 minutes, until greens wilt but stalks are still crisp-tender. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
- Serve the cashew-crusted salmon with this meal and reserve 2 uncrusted fillets for another meal.
