INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
1/4 cup Pistachios, shelled unsalted
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 Orange Zest
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, grated
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Using a food processor or small zip-lock bag and rolling pin, finely chop the pistachios until they resemble coarse crumbs.
Season the salmon fillet with a pinch of salt and black pepper on both sides.
Brush the salmon with olive oil to help the pistachio coating adhere.
Press the chopped pistachios onto the salmon fillet evenly on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix together lemon juice, orange zest, and grated ginger to form the citrus-ginger glaze.
Heat a non-stick, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pistachio-crusted salmon for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
Drizzle or brush the citrus-ginger glaze over the salmon fillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
