Heart-healthy salmon joins with fresh pesto to create a rich and delicious summer meal. Make the meal complete with gazpacho, crusty bread and a nice red wine.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

    Preparing the Pesto

  1. Step 1

    Combine the basil and pine nuts in a food processor, then pulse until coarsely chopped.

  2. Step 2

    Add the garlic and lemon juice and pulse again until incorporated.

  3. Step 3

    Turn the food processor on low and slowly add the olive oil, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides.

  4. Step 4

    Once blended, stop the food processor and add the Parmesan cheese.

  5. Step 5

    Pulse the food processor until the cheese is incorporated, making the pesto appear grainy.

  6. Step 6

    Add salt and pepper to taste.

  7. Grilling the Fish

  8. Step 1

    If you have a charcoal grill, light the coals. Extinguish them when they become red-hot and bank the coals to both sides of the grill, leaving the center clear.
    If you have a gas grill, set the jets for indirect grilling.

  9. Step 2

    Take a sheet of heavy foil and fold up the edges to form a pan large enough to hold the fish.

  10. Step 3

    Brush the foil pan with olive oil or spray it with non-stick cooking spray, then place the fish in it.

  11. Step 4

    Spread the pesto onto the fish in an even layer.

  12. Step 5

    Place the foil pan in the center of the grill, close the lid and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the fish flakes with a fork.

  13. Step 6

    Transfer the fish to a serving platter and garnish with lemon wedges.
