Salmon with Pesto Mayo
Ingredients
  • 4
    5 - 6 ounces skinless, boneless fresh or frozen salmon fillets
  • 2
    tablespoons crumbled firm-textured bread
  • 1/4
    cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 3
    tablespoons purchased basil pesto
  • 1
    tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Directions

1. Thaw fish, if frozen. Preheat broiler. Place the bread crumbs in a shallow baking pan. Broil 4 inches from heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring once. Set bread crumbs aside.

2. Measure thickness of fish. Place fish on the greased unheated rack of broiler pan, tucking under any thin edges. Broil 4 inches from heat for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork. Turn over 1-inch-thick fillets halfway through broiling.

3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir together mayonnaise and pesto; set aside. Combine toasted bread crumbs and cheese. Spoon mayonnaise mixture over fillets. Sprinkle with crumb mixture. Broil 1 to 2 minutes more or until crumbs are lightly browned. Makes 4 servings.

I'm on a low carb diet, so I substituted toasted pine nuts for the bread crumbs. Great simple recipe! Family likes it over pesto pasta

It was DELICIOUS! For 5 stars, I'm doubling it to 10+! So easy! (hint: bread crumbs, I used garlic-flavored croutons and crumbled it with a rolling pin) We can't wait to have it again!
