INGREDIENTS
5 oz Salmon Fillet
1 oz Shelled Pistachios
1 tbsp Orange Juice
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
1 tsp Honey
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F if finishing in the oven, or prepare a non-stick skillet if pan-searing.
Roughly chop the pistachios in a small bowl until you have a coarse crumb. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lightly pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
Press the top of the salmon fillet into the chopped pistachios to form a crust.
In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, grated fresh ginger, and honey to create the citrus-ginger glaze.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with olive oil. Place the salmon, pistachio side down, and sear for 2 minutes until the crust is crisp.
Flip the salmon and drizzle the citrus-ginger glaze over the top. Transfer the skillet to the oven (or continue cooking on a lower heat) and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
Remove from heat and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the salmon and serve immediately.
