How to Make Salmon in Luxurious Green Sesame Pipián

1. Puree Salsa Verde

Prepare a smooth salsa by pureeing salsa verde in a blender or food processor until creamy and uninterrupted in consistency.

2. Reduce Salsa

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot, pour in the pureed salsa, and cook for about 5 minutes until it reduces down to a consistency similar to tomato paste.

3. Combine Broth and Tahini

Add chicken broth and tahini to the skillet, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and a dash of sugar.

4. Prepare Peas

While the sauce simmers, microwave peas until they're hot and tender.

5. Cook Salmon in Sauce

Place salmon fillets into the simmering sauce, coating them well, and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until the fish flakes easily when pressed.

6. Serve

Carefully plate the fillets, spoon the sauce over them, and garnish with hot peas, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and chopped cilantro.
