Chill the butter mixture for easier application and enhanced flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Bake the salmon in the oven for 10 minutes.
Check the salmon for doneness by seeing if it flakes easily with a fork.
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the herb pistachio butter over each salmon fillet.
Allow the butter to melt slightly over the hot salmon for a rich flavor.
Continue baking the salmon for an additional 5 minutes or until fully cooked.
Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
