1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt Enhances the flavors of the fish and pistachios.
1/2 teaspoon black pepper Adds a hint of spice to the dish.
7 ounces white fish fillet Options like sole, flounder, or halibut work wonderfully.
3 tablespoons ground pistachios Provides a crunchy coating and nutty flavor.
Extra virgin olive oil Used for drizzling, it adds richness.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Place the white fish fillet on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over the fish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pistachios with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil until well coated.
Spoon the pistachio mixture over the fish fillet, pressing gently to adhere.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes until the fish is opaque and the crust is golden brown.
Let the fish rest for a few minutes before serving.
