Salmone Con Pesto

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. 2

   To prepare breadcrumb mixture:

3. 3

   In a small bowl, combine breadcrumb, Romano cheese, salt, pepper, olive oil and parsley. Mix together using a fork or your hands. Set aside.

4. 4

   To prepare filet:

5. 5

   Rinse salmon and dry with paper toweling. Lightly salt and pepper each side of the salmon. Lay filet in a foil-lined jelly roll pan large enough to hold the entire length of the fish. Drizzle both sides of salmon with olive oil; rub oil into the flesh.

6. 6

   Evenly spread pesto over exposed side of salmon. Top with breadcrumb mixture; lightly pat to compact the crumbs. Drizzle with olive oil.

7. 7

   Place in oven and immediately reduce heat to 425 degrees. Bake for 15 minutes; breadcrumbs should be golden brown. Let stand for a few minutes before serving for a nice, medium-cooked salmon. (Adjust time depending on your temperature preference.)
