Basil Pistachio Butter

For use on top of grilled salmon. Probably good on chicken too.



3/4 cup chopped fresh basil

1/3 cup shelled pistachios

2 tsp. fresh lime juice

1.2 tsp. minced garlic

1.4 cup softened butter, can use olive oil



Place basil, pistachios, lime juice and garlic in food processor. Pulse to coarsely chop. Place mixture in a bowl and add buter, stirring until well blended. Set aside.



Grill salmon skin side up first. After flipping add the pistachio butter on top to cover. Finish grilling to completely cook the fish. This should not take long. Serve immediately. It is splendid!
