Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pesto Salmon Puff Pastry.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, season your salmon fillets generously with onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 3
Next, take two sheets of puff pastry and evenly distribute half of the fresh spinach leaves in the center of each sheet, creating a vibrant green bed for the salmon.
Step 4
Gently place a salmon fillet atop each spinach mound, then lavishly spread pesto over the fillets, infusing them with a burst of flavor.
Step 5
Pile the remaining spinach leaves on top, adding a touch of freshness.
Step 6
To seal in all that goodness, moisten the edges of the puff pastry with a splash of water, fold them over the filling, and press the seams together firmly to create a delightful pocket.
Step 7
Slide your creations into the preheated oven and let them bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry puffs up to a golden perfection and the salmon is cooked through, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 8
Enjoy the delicious harmony of flavors in every bite!.
