Salmon Pesto

Ingredients

Portion the salmon filets into pieces that are about 2-3” wide and spread about 1 teaspoon of pesto onto each piece of fish.

Step 1

Spread the pesto out along each of the salmon pieces. Put the baking tray in the oven and bake.

Step 2

Once the fish is out of the oven, you can add another dollop of pesto to the top of each piece of fish before serving. Serve over rice, a big salad or for something fancy over risotto, and enjoy!

Step 3

Make sure to not overcook your salmon. When the thermometer reaches 145 degrees at the thickest part of each piece, pull the salmon out of the oven immediately.
