Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a cake pan.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the lemon zest and juice, mixing until combined.
In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients.
Fold in the chopped pistachios, ensuring even distribution.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
