Ingredients
- 4 salmon filets
- Freshly cracked pepper
- 1 cup of premade pesto (you can make your own if you are feeling fancy!)
- 1 lemon
Method
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees
- Pat the salmon dry to remove any moisture so it roasts in the oven. Sprinkle with a large pinch of freshly ground pepper. Brush on the pesto sauce so that the top and sides are covered
- Roast until cooked through, about 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness
- Squeeze lemon juice on top once it's done and enjoy immediately!
Serve with spaghetti squash mash - you can find that recipe here!
