PESTO SALMON
A flavorful pesto helps keep the fish moist, and toasted bread crumbs give the entree a nice finishing touch. "I like to use fresh basil from the garden for this easy dish," notes Lee Bremson of Kansas City, Missouri.

STEPHAN'S BROILED SALMON PESTO
This salmon is coated with a thick layer of pesto, sort of like icing on a cake. The prepared side is then placed under the broiler, and the pesto forms a browned crust. Equally good cold--the entire dish can be made a day in advance for cold service, or the leftovers served cold at lunch the next day. Goes well with rosemary and garlic roasted red potatoes and any green vegetable.

Steps:
- Lightly oil a baking pan large enough to accommodate the fish. Place salmon in pan skin side down. Run finger over flesh to make sure all bones have been removed. Use pliers to pull out any that remain. Squeeze juice of one lemon and white wine over fish. Marinate 15 minutes.
- Preheat broiler.
- Coat the top side of the fish with thick layer of pesto. It should be between an 1/8th to a 1/4 of an inch thick, and cover the surface of the fish.
- Place fish under the broiler about nine inches from heat source. Broil for 8 to 10 minutes per inch of thickness, or until fish flakes and flesh is opaque. Pesto should have formed a heavily browned crust. Remove from the oven, and set aside for a few minutes. Squeeze half of second lemon over fish. Slice remaining lemon half into thin slices. Place lemon slices on individual servings, or arrange on the whole flank if serving at the table.

PESTO SALMON
This salmon recipe is so simple and yet extremely impressive; I often serve it to company or on special occasions and I'm always asked for the recipe. I serve it with angel hair pasta (lightly tossed with fresh herbs and olive oil), a basic spring mix salad with vinegarette, and a crusty, hearty garlic bread - enjoy!

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add a large pinch of salt and cook the pasta according to package directions for al dente, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and bell pepper. Cook until the bell pepper starts to soften, about 1 minute. Add the salmon and red pepper flakes, if using, to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and the black pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes without stirring. Then continue cooking and stirring until the salmon is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and set aside.
- For the pesto: Place the basil, garlic, pine nuts, salt and black pepper in a blender. Start on low speed, then increase to medium. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and blend until smooth. Stop the blender and scrape down the sides. Add the cheese and blend a few seconds just to incorporate. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Drain the pasta and add it to the bowl with the salmon. Add the pesto and toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve immediately, or refrigerate until chilled. Finish with basil leaves and grated cheese if desired.
