Pistachio Crusted Salmon Recipe

1/4 cup unsalted shelled pistachios chopped

1/2 tablespoon za’atar spice mix –  if you don’t have za’atar you can opt for Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt

12 ounces salmon filets 2 6-ounce fillets

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

2 lemon wedges for serving

Preheat the oven to 425F.

Stir together the pistachios, za’atar, and salt in a shallow bowl.

Coat the salmon with olive oil, and dip the side without skin in the pistachio mixture, lightly pressing it into the fish.

Place the coated salmon fillets on a baking tray (pistachio-side-up). Bake until the salmon is fully cooked throughout, about 12 to 15 minutes (it will be opaque and flake easily with a fork).

Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze on top.
