Pistachio Crusted Salmon with Basil Sauce

Pistachio Crusted Salmon with Basil Sauce

A simple pistachio crust takes this salmon from everyday delicious to special enough for guests— the best part about it is that it takes less than 30 minutes to make!

That’s what I love about salmon, no matter how exquisite the dish, it is so quick and easy to make. It truly makes the perfect weeknight dinner
