This dish was average. The pesto didn't 'crust' like the recipe said it would. I'd make this again if I needed a quick dinner with little ingredients but wouldn't serve to dinner guests.

This one of the best salmon dishes I have ever had and my wife enjoys it as well. We also like it as cold leftovers for lunch the next day. You have to like pesto to like this dish, but if you do, it makes for a tasty salmon.

This was very good - but I made a few modifications. I used the tomato based pesto and baked (not broiled) for 25 @375. I could imagine the caloric content of using regular pesto at even 1 cup! I used only 1/2 cup for 2.5lbs of salmon. Still very delicious. Topped it over "Salmon and Spinach Fettuccine" that is posted on this site. Magnifique!

This was awesome!!!! I bought a jar of Pesto & Dill. Then, I pasted on to the salmon. Boy, they were great. My husband never eats leftover fish however he ate this one even next day!!! Thank you for the great recipe.

I thought this recipe was going to be great and it was just okay. There was a nice crust from the pesto. However, I used a jarred pesto and I noticed all of the olive oil that was used in the pesto separated causing much splattering in the broiler. My fiance says for lack of a better recipe we may try it again for the salmon.

I had a difficult time not burning the pesto. I actually had to remove the burnt parts, however my husband loved it.

This salmon really was delish. I made it for a group of 12 women and I believe all of them liked it. I left the pesto off part of one of the filets and that was also a hit for those who don't like pesto. I read the other comments so I made the Pesto from scratch instead of using the convenient one from Costco that I had bought. Great idea as I think it did make a difference. Lemon is a necessity. I broiled it on hi mostly but lowered to lo. 8 minutes did it perfectly. I refigerated it for a few hours and we ate it cold. Awesome! I served it with the Risotto Cake from this site and Roasted Vegetables. A bikini martini was the starter drink and we had a great evening. Perfect for a hot summer day.

This was okay. Not terrible, not great. I wasn't sure what to expect from the other reviews -- seems like people either loved it or hated it. I was in the middle. I don't know that I'd make it again, but it was fairly decent. I think it is key to be sure that you are not putting the fish too close to the broiler. I baked it for about 22-25 minutes and the fish was done perfectly.

Very easy and doesn't require many ingredients. I didn't even have wine. But salmon came out real flavorful and delicious. My broiler has High and Low settings - I used Low and it was perfect - took about 25 minutes. Thank you.

Great dish! Just make sure you place the broiler pan at least 8-9" away from the broiler as to not burn the pesto before the fish is cooked.

this dish was amazingly delicious. i didn't have any lemon, so i used a bit more white wine, but i could tell that the lemon would have added another dimension. will definitely try it again (and will use the lemon next time!)

Fantastic! I used salmon steaks and homemade pesto. Couldn't have been easier to make. I will definitely make this recipe again. It is rare to find something so good that is so easy to make. I think this would be a fantastic dish to make when you have company--you know you wouldn't have to stress about the main course and it definitely tastes special.

Very tasty. I made the pesto from scratch and ended up baking it until the fish was firm. I was afraid that browning the pesto would ruin the fresh flavors that are my favorite part of pesto.

This recipe was DELICIOUS! I made it for my mom and dad and they absolutely loved it. The pesto made the salmon so delicious! The lemon juice made it taste great too! It was easy to make. I am a beginner at cooking and this was my first attempt at cooking salmon and it turned out great!! This is a recipe you don't want to miss!
