Grilled Cod with Pistachio-Herb Salsa
Report
You don't need a long marinade–or any planning ahead, for that matter–to bring bold flavor to an easy weeknight dinner! Instead, make a zippy Mediterranean-style salsa while you preheat your grill and you'll have a healthy dinner on your table in 30 minutes or less.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
- 1/2 cup torn mint leaves, plus more for garnish
- 4 scallions, finely minced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- extra virgin olive oil
- kosher salt
- black pepper
- 4 (6 to 8 ounces) skin-on cod filets (or other white fish such as branzino or rainbow trout)
Instructions
- Get ready. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan to high heat.
- Make the Pistachio-Herb Salsa. In a bowl, combine the pistachios, parsley, mint, scallions, garlic, lemon juice, and enough olive oil for a runny, salsa-like sauce (1/2 to 3/4 cups). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Season the cod. Place the filets on a rimmed baking sheet or plate. Season generously with salt and pepper and brush lightly with olive oil.
- Grill the cod. Place the cod, skin-side down, on the hot grill and cook until the skin is browned and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the fish with a fish spatula and cook until opaque throughout, 1 to 3 minutes longer (depending on the thickness of the filets).
- Finish and serve. Transfer the fish to a shallow platter and drizzle with Pistachio-Herb Salsa. Serve immediately, topped with torn mint leaves.

- If you can't find cod, don't care for it or are new to grilling you may want to try a thicker cut like skin-on halibut or haddock instead—any white fish that is 1/2 inch or so thick will be a little more forgiving on the grill.
