Pistachio and Cream Salmon Recipe

Total Time: 30 minutes

Yield: 2 main courses

Ingredients:

• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/8 cup chopped onion
• 2 tsp lemon zest
• 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
• 3 Tbsp plain yogurt
• 1/2 lemon
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• salt and pepper
• 2 salmon fillets
• 1 Tbsp oil

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400F (I used my toaster oven) and line a baking sheet with foil.
2. Spread some oil on foil. Place salmon, add rest of oil to top. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper. You will shoot for baking your fish for 15-20 minutes, depending how you like it and how thick it is. While baking, combine garlic, onion and lemon zest in small bowl.

6. Start chopping pistachios. I like mine to have both big and small pieces for texture.

 

 
7. When salmon is done, remove and top with your cream sauce.
