1. Heat oven to 450°F. Melt 2 tbs butter in a small saucepan; add nuts and cook 2-3 minutes until nuts start to color. Remove from heat.
2. Melt remaining tbs of butter, and pour into a 9' x 13' roasting pan. Place salmon in roasting pan, flesh side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour nut mixture over fish. Roast 10-15 minutes, for medium. Transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with cilantro.
