Sun-Dried Tomato-Pesto Side Of Salmon

A side of salmon always has a wow factor when presented. This one was inspired by my mother-in-law, who always makes incredible sides of salmon. It’s great for brunch, melave malka, and even Friday night. I add mayo to the extra pesto and serve it with bread or challah—it makes an incredible dip.

Directions

Prepare the Sun-Dried Tomato-Pesto Side of Salmon

1. In a food processor, blend all ingredients except salmon to make a paste. It should be quite thick. If it’s too thick and not spreadable, add some oil.

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place salmon on the baking sheet. Spread the pesto on top.

3. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25–30 minutes.
