This is beyond easy. After squeezing the salmon filet with lemon juice, I spread my homemade pesto all over the top. Wrapped the whole thing in a double layer of aluminum foil threw it on the grill and grilled it for 10 minutes. This moist grilled salmon shared the plate with a mixed green salad tossed with a simple lemon vinaigrette. Delicious!
I'm feeling healthier already!!!!
Salmon is one of my favorites fishes and really love it! This sounds delicious:))
ReplyDeleteIt looks yummy, it must be so nice to be able to get fresh fish. Ours is always a little...well, lets say ripe. :) By the time it gets to our store. My kids and hubby looove any kind of fish and they love salmon.
ReplyDeleteWe love Salmon, too. It is just not so easy to find wild caught all the time, which is the only one I buy. Thanks for a new recipe idea. My family will like it with pesto.

ReplyDeleteWhy the double wrap of foil? To keep it from leaking?
Hi Janet, I double wrap it so it won't get burned on the bottom. Thanks for visiting!

Never thought of using pesto with salmon. Perfect time to give it a try as the basil plants are so big in the garden.
