Directions

  1. Cook pasta according to instructions on the packet.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, start by chopping the pistachio nuts, leaving some texture. Add the chopped fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese. Slowly stream in the olive oil and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and add grated garlic if desired. Set aside in a cool place while preparing the fish.
  3. Filet the fish, keeping the skin on each fillet. Sprinkle some salt on each side.
  4. Heat a saucepan with oil and fry the fish on each side for approximately 2 minutes on each side.
  5. Blend most of the pesto with the cooked pasta and arrange the fish fillets nicely on top of the pasta in a large serving bowl.
  6. Sprinkle some chopped nuts on top and serve the remaining pesto on the side.
