Pistachio Crusted Salmon
Pistachio crusted salmon takes regular salmon and adds flair with a crispy, pistachio crust covering perfectly seasoned, flaky salmon.
Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon
- salt & pepper to taste
- mustard or mayo to help crust stick
Crust
- 1/4 cup pistachio, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoon plain breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- First, chop up the pistachios then mix together the other ingredients for the crust. Set to the side. Preheat the oven to 375℉.
- Now, season the salmon with salt and pepper. In a frying pan, add a little oil and on medium high heat sear both sides of the salmon. You only want to give it some color because it'll finish cooking in the oven.
- Remove the seared salmon and place on a sheet pan. Brush mayo or mustard across the tops then carefully press the crust on the tops.
- Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning the pistachios.
- Once finished cooking allow to cool a bit but not too long since seafood cools really fast. Enjoy.
