• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Combine shaved Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. • Pat salmon dry with a paper towel. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then season generously with salt. Turn to coat. Spread half the creamy pesto dressing over top of the salmon. Spoon over panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so it sticks. • Drizzle salmon with olive oil. Bake salmon until just cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
