Butter-Basted Salmon With Hazelnut Relish

• 1/2 cup blanched hazelnuts
• 1 garlic clove, chopped
• 1 cup (packed) fresh cilantro leaves with tender stems
• 1/2 cup (packed) fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves with tender stems
• 1 tablespoon capers
• 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• Kosher salt
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 4 6-ounce pieces skin-on salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
• 2 heads Little Gem or other small lettuce, leaves separated

1. Preheat oven to 400u0b0. Toast hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Let cool.
2. Pulse garlic, cilantro, parsley, capers, lemon zest, and 1/4 cup hazelnuts in a food processor until finely chopped. With machine running, gradually add olive oil; season relish with salt. Coarsely chop remaining hazelnuts.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season salmon with salt and cook, skin side down, until skin is crisp (do not disturb), about 4 minutes. Add butter and cook, basting constantly, 1 minute. Transfer to oven and roast salmon, basting once, until medium-rare (mostly opaque but still slightly translucent in the center), about 3 minutes.
4. Serve salmon, skin side up, with lettuce, topped with relish and chopped hazelnuts.
5. Do ahead: Relish can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
