From the Test Kitchen

Here, we’re coating rich salmon with a layer of creamy mayo mixed with our fragrant basil, cashew, and pine nut pesto—which adds plenty of flavor and helps keep the salmon moist. 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.
