Pistachio Pesto Crusted Halibut
The perfect summer dish is here! I am excited to share my new recipe- pistachio pesto crusted halibut.
I love a good white fish... Specially during the summer paired with a nice Pinot Grigio! This dish is simple, healthy, and clean. The pistachio pesto is full of flavor and cooks well with the fish. The overall cook time is about 25 minutes, making the perfect meal so easy. Details below for your next dinner..
