Side Pannel
Mint Pesto
Ingredients List
- 2 c Firmly packed mint leaves
- 1 tb Chopped nuts
- 1/4 ts Salt
- 1 sm Clove garlic, minced
- Olive oil
- 3 tb Grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
Toss the fresh mint leaves into a food processor or blender along with the
salt, garlic and nuts. (Pine nuts are good; walnuts are okay also.)
Start the food processor and then slowly add olive oil. Don't process too
long or add too much oil; aim for a consistency that can be spread with a
knife. When done processing, remove it to a dish and stir in the cheese.
This is great spread across the top of broiled salmon or halibut fillets.
You can also toss it with pasta as a simple side dish, or add broiled or
steamed slices of chicken, seafood, or vegetables to make a main dish.
