INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1 oz Unsalted Pistachios
1 tsp Honey
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse unsalted pistachios until they reach a coarse, crumbly texture. Transfer crushed pistachios to a shallow dish.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
Brush the top of the salmon with olive oil, then press the fish flesh-side down into the crushed pistachios to ensure an even crust forms.
Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet, crust-side up, and bake for about 12-15 minutes until the fish is just cooked through.
While the salmon bakes, prepare the honey citrus glaze by combining honey, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl.
Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle the glaze over the top while it's still warm.
Let the flavors meld for a couple of minutes before serving, and enjoy your crispy, flavor-packed dish.
