	Midwestguy / All my dishes 1 year, 7 months ago I actually saw this recipe on a cooking show years and years ago. I used to buy premade pesto for this, but now i use my own. the combination of the pesto and salmon is very unique and the only word i can use its delicious. Prep:5m Cook:1216m Servings:2	Midwestguy

Ingredients

1 or 2 salmon filets (skin on)

1/2 cup of pesto

little salt

Directions

heat oven to 400 degrees

place salmon on a rimmed baking sheet with foil (do not spray, you want the skin to stick so you can loosen it with a flat spatula at the end when serving.

spoon on pesto and cover evenly (as thick as you want). i like quite a bit

bake about 12 to 16 minutes until done (depends on thickness)

soo very simple. so very declicious.

i usually serve this with grilled vegetables or even pasta.

Sounds like a quick version of Chimichurri Salmon. Thanks. Will put this one in the recipe drawer.

Another nice simple and delicious one. Check out my salmon with basil pesto and polenta crust, I think you'd enjoy it :-)
