    • lemon (optional garnish)

      Pistachio Grouper Ingredients
    • Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Cut your baguette into 1-inch slices, then oil and season to taste. Set aside.

    • Prepare the coating and bake: Crush the pistachios to your preferred coarseness (not too fine as to become powder and lose that satisfying crunch!) and coat your marinated grouper. Place your grouper and baguette slices into your preheated oven, and bake for 20-30 minutes.

    • Prepare the salad: Slice the figs in half. As your fish and crostinis finish baking, arrange the salad to your preference. In our case, we placed a healthy bed of arugula, sliced figs, prosciutto, and cheese (pictured are both burrata and treccione, but anything you like will work!) Drizzle with balsamic to taste.

    • Plate and serve: Once finished baking, remove the grouper and baguette slices (now crostinis) from the oven. Garnish the grouper with basil and lemon if desired, plate, and serve!
