    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    Make homemade Pesto instead of using store bought, your taste buds will thank you! It's EASY to make and the freshness in the taste of homemade is incredible!

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup basil pesto sauce
    4 (6 ounce) boneless, skinless salmon filets
    1 1/2 cups unsalted pistachios, shelled, chopped (Do not pulverize)

    Recipe



    Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Spread pesto sauce over the salmon filets and press chopped pistachios into them to form a crust. Be generous with the pistachios, you want to form a good crust, any excess will just fall onto the baking sheet.

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on the size of the filets. My idea of the perfect salmon filet is slightly under cooked so you can still see that coraly pink trail running through the middle of the fish.

    Serves 4

    ***To make this ww friendly, make the ww version of pesto sauce***
