Time 25m

Yield 3 fillets, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb salmon fillet
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
3 tablespoons dijon-style mustard (I actually used the whole grain variety)
1 tablespoon chopped chives or 1 tablespoon scallion
1/2 cup shelled salted and dry roasted pistachios, crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel and divide the fillet into three uniform portions.
  • Sprinkle salt and pepper on the skin, and lay it skin-side down on the parchment-lined baking tray.
  • Combine the mustard and chives in a small bowl.
  • Spread one-third of the mixture evenly on each piece of fish.
  • Next, sprinkle the crushed nuts on top of the mustardy salmon and pat them down gently to make sure they stick.
  • Place the tray in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through to your desired doneness. If you're cooking a whole 1-pound filet, you may need to increase the baking time to 15 minutes.
  • Take the salmon out of the oven and let the fillets rest for a few minutes before serving.
