For a richer flavor, use homemade pesto. The marinating time can be extended up to 30 minutes for deeper flavor infusion. Watch the salmon closely under the broiler to prevent burning. Adjust the oven rack if needed. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and enjoyed cold or reheated gently.
