Salmon With Puff Pastry and Pesto

I am always looking for new recipes for Salmon.   I found this recipe a number of years ago and have yet to try it myself.   I have tons of recipes that I  have seen and said oh that looks good why don't we try it sometime.  Maybe I will make this next time I do Salmon.
