Test Kitchen tips
  • Any nuts may be substituted for the pistachios. Some of our favorites are almonds and pecans.
  • Make sure to use plain horseradish, not horseradish sauce or creamed horseradish.
  • One tablespoon of horseradish adds a nice mild flavor, but feel free to increase to 2 or 3 tablespoons if you like a little more bite.
  • This nutty coating also adds a nice crunch to chicken and pork.
  • For easier cleanup, line baking pan with foil.

    Text Ingredients

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°. Place salmon, skin side down, in an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Spread sour cream over each fillet. Combine remaining ingredients. Pat crumb-nut mixture onto tops of salmon fillets, pressing to help coating adhere. Bake until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 12-15 minutes.
