Method

Preparing the Grilled Salmon

  1. 1

    Marinate the Salmon

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the salmon fillets and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Salmon

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.

Preparing the Tomato Pesto Salad

  1. 3

    Make the Pesto

    In a food processor, combine basil leaves, pine nuts, grated Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine cherry tomatoes with the pesto. Toss gently to coat the tomatoes in the pesto.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 5

    Place a generous portion of the tomato pesto salad on each plate and top with a grilled salmon fillet. Enjoy!
