Ingredients
All you need for this recipe are two salmon fillets, a lemon, some pesto, breadcrumbs, and parmesan. If you want some extra bulk on the plate, potatoes, broccoli, and green beans are good candidates.
Flavor the Salmon
Take your two salmon fillets and place them skin down on a baking tray. Spread green pesto over the whole surface of the salmon, and try to make it as even as possible.
Mix Breadcrumbs
Next, mix the breadcrumbs with parmesan cheese in a small mixing bowl. Toss together to combine, and then sprinkle the cheesy breadcrumb mix over the salmon. Press the breadcrumbs into the fish to ensure it sticks, and then drizzle olive oil over it.
Bake and Serve
Put the baking tray on the top shelf of the oven with the heat on 400 F for 10-12 minutes. Bake until the breadcrumbs are crispy and golden and the fish is opaque. Serve with a squirt of lemon juice and your choice of vegetables. Enjoy!
