In this surprisingly simple recipe, creamy pesto adds a rich and herby flavour to the juicy salmon, while also working as the glue for the Parmesan crust. Serve with a couple of colourful veggie sides to balance out the richness.

• 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 and place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, turning to coat. • Spread pesto over the top of each salmon fillet, then top with panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so it sticks. • Bake until just cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread chopped 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). • Combine the honey with a drizzle of the white wine vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. • Add carrot and deluxe salad mix, tossing to combine. Season to taste.
• Divide pesto-crusted salmon, roast potato and rainbow salad between plates. • Serve with remaining creamy pesto dressing. Enjoy!
