Method
1.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2.
Pat the salmon fillets dry and season each with salt and pepper.
3.
Spread Dijon mustard evenly over the top of each fillet.
4.
Mix the finely chopped cherries and crushed pistachios in a bowl, then press this mixture onto the mustard-coated side of each salmon fillet to form a crust.
5.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon, crust side up, for about 3 minutes to brown the bottoms.
6.
Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the crust is slightly golden.
7.
Serve the salmon fillets with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh mint.
