  1. Salmon: Place one side of the salmon filet (skin down) on a 9×13 or sheet pan. Season with salt & pepper and smear pesto lightly over the top. Place in a 400° oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until how you like it cooked.
  2. Tomato salsa: Dice heirloom tomatoes. Add red onion, garlic cloves, chopped basil and tarragon, 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, and salt & pepper to taste. Spoon onto the fish after it’s baked.
