Serving idea:
Try it as a fast, fresh topping for salmon fillets.
Place 6-ounce salmon fillets skin-side down
on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Spread each fil-
let with a thin layer of pesto and sprinkle with
fresh breadcrumbs. Bake in a preheated 400ºF
oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until cooked (about
10 minutes per inch of thickness) and opaque,
and breadcrumbs are lightly browned. Let rest
5 minutes before serving.
Roasted Red
Pepper Sauce
Use this sauce for vegetables or meats, or try
our creamy variation to use as a dip for fresh
vegetable crudités or pita chips.
Makes 1
1
⁄8 cups
1–2 cloves garlic (to taste), peeled *
1 strip lemon zest (2 x
1
⁄2 inches),
bitter white pith removed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon herbs de Provençe
1
1
⁄2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1
1
⁄2 tablespoons regular or white
balsamic vinegar
1
⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 jar (12-ounce) roasted red peppers,
drained but not rinsed
4 large fresh red peppers, roasted,
cut in eighths
Add the garlic, zest, salt, and herbs to the work
bowl and chop for 5 to 10 seconds; scrape
the bottom and sides of the work bowl. Add
the lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil and peppers.
Pulse on chop, 10 times, then process for 15 to
20 seconds until smooth. Transfer to a reseal-
able container and refrigerate for at least 30
minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Will keep
up to 1 week refrigerated.
Roasted Red Pepper Dip Variation:
Make half
the recipe (use a 6–7-ounce jar of roasted pep-
pers). Add 2 ounces of regular or lowfat cream
cheese and
1
⁄4 cup of sour cream or plain yogurt
that has been drained, and chop for 10 to 15
seconds until combined and smooth.
[To drain yogurt, place yogurt in a yogurt fun-
nel or strainer lined with a paper coffee filter
over a bowl, and allow the liquid (whey) to
drain for several hours, until desired thickness
is reached.]
*If you prefer a lighter garlic flavor, you may
blanch the peeled garlic in boiling water for 4
to 5 minutes. Drain, cool and use in this or any
other recipe.

Lemon Herb Butter
This compound butter is delicious on veg-
etables or grilled meats. You may vary the
herbs used, such as basil, tarragon or thyme
butter, to create your own flavors, omit the zest
or change the citrus, add in chopped olives or
sun-dried tomatoes, or use roasted garlic or
shallots in place of the garlic.
Makes about
3
⁄4 cup (12 servings)
2 cloves garlic, peeled
2 strips lemon zest, 2 x
1
⁄2 inches,
bitter white pith removed
1
⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
1
⁄3 cup packed Italian parsley leaves
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary leaves
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
1
⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
(white or black)
3
⁄4 cup (6 ounces) unsalted butter,
cut in 12 pieces
Process garlic, lemon zest and salt on chop
until finely chopped, about 20 seconds; scrape
prep bowl. Add parsley and rosemary leaves;
pulse on chop, 10 to 15 times. Add lemon
juice, mustard and pepper; process on chop
to blend well, about 30 seconds. Add butter
and grind to cream the mixture, about 30 to 40
seconds. Transfer to a container and let stand
for 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
Use as a spread for breads or as a topping for
freshly steamed vegetables or baked potatoes.
To serve as a compound butter with grilled
meats or fish, shape the butter into a log, about
1 inch in diameter; wrap tightly in plastic wrap
and refrigerate or freeze. Slice and serve
1
⁄8-
inch thick slices of butter on top of hot grilled
steaks, boneless chicken breasts or seafood
steaks.
