You have salmon now what to do with it? Pistachio + Basil + Butter = just get ready. This is really different and has a very rich taste but not over whelming.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup pistachios – shelled or you can get the ones that are already shelled
15 fresh basil leaves
4 cloves of garlic
1/2 cup of butter (I didn’t say it was healthy but butter is soooooo good!)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 cup of white wine
4 – 6 ounce salmon fillets (since this was for a party I doubled everything)
Step 1:
In a food processor combine butter, pistachios, garlic, basil, and lemon juice.
Step 2:
Once everything is combined in the food processor remove the butter mixture, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3:
Preheat the oven to 400 and cut the salmon into strips.
Step 4:
Place the salmon strips skin down into a buttered baking dish.
Step 5:
Cover the salmon with wine and bake till opaque which is about 10 minutes. Place 2-3 tablespoons of butter mixture on each piece of salmon and continue to bake for about another 5-6 minutes.
Remove from the oven and there you have it Salmon with Pistachio Basil Butter.
