In this surprisingly simple recipe, creamy pesto adds a rich and herby flavour to the juicy salmon, while also helping the Parmesan crust to stick. Serve with a couple of colourful sides to balance out the richness.
We’ve replaced the chicken breast in this recipe with chicken tenderloins due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Combine Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. • Pat salmon dry with a paper towel and place on a lined oven tray, skin-side down. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, turning to coat. Spread half the creamy pesto dressing over top of each salmon fillet. Spoon over panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so it sticks. • Bake until crumb is golden and salmon is just cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut potato into bite-sized chunks. • Spread potato over a large microwave-safe plate. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave potatoes on high, 3 minutes. • Drain any excess liquid, then place potatoes on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until golden and tender, 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grate carrot (see ingredients). • In a large bowl, combine the honey with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. • Add carrot and deluxe salad mix, tossing to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide pesto-crusted salmon, roast potato and rainbow salad between plates. • Serve with remaining creamy pesto dressing. Enjoy!
