My two favorite things in a recipe. Salmon and pistachios. For Christmas last year, I had one box under the Christmas tree from my parents. It was a gift card and a bag of Costco pistachios. Best.Christmas.Ever. My parents know me a little too well. And it was my dad who got our family addicted to pistachios. And sunflower seeds. But that is a whole different obsession. Hmmm sunflower seed salmon. 🙂
How could you not love pistachios? They are amazing! This salmon combined so many amazing flavors. The dill, lemon, brown sugar, and pistachios combined perfectly to give it an amazing salty sweet taste. I love grilling salmon because it takes less than 10 minutes and peels apart with your fork.
Uh-mazing!

Saw this recipe and am curious – how would you recommend adapting it for an oven vs a grill? Thanks!
This looks absolutely delicious. Great pics. Thanks for the recipe.
This looks amazing and I can imagine tastes even better.
I’m interested in making the recipe you posted. However, in the directions to list to “combine everything with the lemon juice” and you list no lemon juice in the ingredients list. How much should be used?
Sorry I have fixed that! Thanks for noticing. It is 3 Tbsp Lemon Juice! 🙂
THANKS! 🙂
