Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 pound Atlantic salmon center cut

For the Gremolata:

  • 2 tablespoons pistachios chopped
  • 1 small clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon capers
  • 1 tablespoon pomegranate arils
  • zest of half a lemon
  • 1 brief squeeze of lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

For the Glaze:

  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 3/4 teaspoon pomegrante molasses
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

For the Gremolata:

  • Mix all ingredients for the Gremolata in a small bowl together and set aside.

For the Glaze:

  • Mix the Dijon mustard, pomegranate molasses, salt and pepper together in a ramekin and set aside.
    Note: This was enough for a thin glaze over the top, but if you like your glaze thicker, double it up.

For the Salmon:

  • Place the salmon in a parchment lined baking dish.
  • Spread glaze evenly over the fish and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until desired doneness. Serve topped with the Gremolata, and a wee sprinkle more of pomegranate arils and parsley for decoration.
