The Seafood Kitchen: Pesto Salmon

Adding seafood into my diet has always seemed intimidating. I've gotten shrimp down now and now I am trying salmon. This was an easy recipe to start. I did have to play around with the cook time a bit.


The ingredients:
1 salmon. Fillet 
1/4 C pesto
1 TBSP lemon juice
Coarse Salt and pepper 
Olive oil


The recipe:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
On baking sheet add a drizzle of olive oil.
Place fillet skin down and add a pink of coarse salt and pepper.
Drizzle with lemon juice.
Top with pesto in a thick coating.
Bake for apprx 20 minutes until opaque and flaky.


Notes
You can use skin on or skinless.
My oven too about 20 minutes you can start at less and check and add more time if needed.
Add Veggies as a side on the same baking sheet for a 1 pan meal.
