Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a food processor, pulse the pistachios until finely chopped.

In a bowl, combine chopped pistachios, bread crumbs, melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, salt, black pepper, paprika, mustard, and onion powder.

Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.

Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet.

Spread the pistachio mixture evenly over the top of each fish fillet, pressing gently to adhere.

Drizzle a little olive oil over the crust for added richness.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
