Prepare the topping:
In a small bowl, mix together the ground pistachio nuts, panko breadcrumbs and extra virgin olive oil. Set aside.

Divide all ingredients into half. Add the divided ingredients into two 1-quart oven proof baking dish. I like to layer carrots,, shallots, garlic, capers, and sprinkle herbs, reserving 2 teaspoons to sprinkle on fish.
Pour in the wine. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix to coat the veggies with the seasoning.
Place the fish on top of the veggies. Sprinkle with the remaining herbs.
Place 2 slices of tomatoes on top of each fish in a single layer. Add the orange and lemon slices around the fish.
Sprinkle the top of the fish with the pistachio breadcrumb mixture. Top with a few pieces of butter.
Place the dishes on a sheet pan for easy handling.
Bake the fish and vegetables for 15 to 20 minutes or until the internal fish temperature reaches 141F - 145F degrees.
Note: Check the browning of the breadcrumbs nut mixture around 12 minutes into the baking. If getting too brown cover loosely with aluminum foil.
Serve the dish hot in the baking dish. Enjoy.
