5 from 2 votes
Serves: 4 -6
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 18 minutes
Total Time: 28 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1.5-2 lbs salmon
  • 1 cup tightly packed herbs- cilantro, parsley, dill, basil
  • 1/4 cup roasted pistachios
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F
  2. Add the herbs, pistachios, olive oil, lemon juice, zest, honey and pinch of salt to a food processor or blender. Blend together to form a thick, herby paste
  3. Place the salmon on a sheet-pan or baking dish- I like to place it over sliced oranges for a pop of color. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then spread the pistachio herb marinade over the top
  4. Bake for about 18-20 minutes, depending on the size and thickness of the fish, until the fish flakes easily with a fork
