Salmon with Basil Pesto

This is a delicious and easy way to prepare salmon.  The recipe is from Tasty Paleo.

Prep Time:  5 Min.     Cook Time:  20 Min.     Servings:  6

Ingredients

  • 4 oz basil pesto, homemade or “crap free”
  • 1-1/2 lb filet of wild caught salmon, 1/2 to 3/4 inches thick
  • 2 Tbs Parmesan Cheese (optional/not Paleo)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  Place the salmon, skin side down in a shallow pan with sides.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Use a spoon or fork to cover the salmon evenly with the pesto.  Bake for 15 – 20 minutes until done.  It will lighten to a “salmon” color.  Do not over cook.  Grate parmesan over the hot salmon if desired and serve.

Enjoy!
