Air Fryer - 400F for 6 mins or 350 for 10 minutes
The pesto on the costco salmon milano is the Kirkland signature pesto mixed with butter. I do a half cup (1 stick) mixed with 2-3 tablespoons of pesto, mixed in food processor. Salt and pepper the salmon, spread pesto mix over salmon and fresh dill. It's also really good with slices of tomato too.
* I asked the costco meat department how they make it. They use Kirkland frozen salmon, Kirkland butter, Kirkland pesto, and a sprig of dill! All sold in warehouse, minus the dill. They (and possibly you, now) blend the pesto with butter, add sprig of dill weed! Now we save money and can have it anytime we like.
* mix the Costco pesto and butter together and put that on salmon. Just as good for a fraction of the price. My husband used to just put butter & besto on the salmon. But we learned it was better to combine the two first.
Costco pesto sauce
what you do is as soon as you drain your pasta, you add the pesto, and with the pasta heat it will become saucy, also there is always a little moisture that stays in the pasta after draining but if you want to make sure it is how you like it, I will reserve a little of the pasta water and once you add the pesto, if you feel that you want it more saucy, you can add a little water. If you want creamy pesto, mix it with alfredo.
It’s so good with tri tip or steak. Or on paninis. As long as whatever you’re putting on the pesto is hot, the pesto will soften. But don’t cook with it or it gets funky.
You can add a bit of heavy whipping cream or cream cheese to the pasta, or saute some kind of tomato in a SMALL bit of butter, cream, or olive oil.... Like chopped sundried tomatoes or cherry tomatoes adding a small squeeze of lemon juice if anything to pesto....
*Air Fryer chicken breast: Cooked at 360° I smothered two breasts with the pesto, cooked for 10 mins, flipped - then added the tomato and cheese and cooked for another 7-8 mins. But could be more or less time depending on thickness.
