From the Test Kitchen

In this easy sheet pan recipe, rich salmon is coated with a sauce of vibrant pesto and creamy mayonnaise, topped with a sprinkle of breadcrumbs, then baked to achieve a crispy, flavorful crust. For easy, hands-off cooking, we’re baking the salmon in the oven alongside our simply-seasoned trio of roasted broccoli, sweet potatoes, and radishes.
