This salmon recipe is so simple and yet extremely impressive; I often serve it to company or on special occasions and I'm always asked for the recipe. I serve it with angel hair pasta (lightly tossed with fresh herbs and olive oil), a basic spring mix salad with vinegarette, and a crusty, hearty garlic bread - enjoy! Ingredients:
4 -6 salmon fillets (no skin) |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
fresh ground pepper |
3/4 cup prepared pesto sauce (refrigerated) or 3/4 cup fresh homemade pesto sauce |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese |
3 sliced plum tomatoes (optional) |
Directions:
1. Lightly coat a baking pan with cooking spray.
2. Place each salmon fillet in the baking pan and drizzle with olive oil.
3. Apply freshly ground pepper to taste over each fillet.
4. Gently spread pesto sauce over each fillet.
5. Sprinkle parmesean cheese over each fillet.
6. Optional: Place plum tomatoes slices on each fillet and sprinkle with a bit of additional parmesean cheese.
7. Bake prepared salmon fillets in a 350 oven for approximately 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.
