1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Add salmon filets to a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Puree the basil pesto and softened butter in a food processor, until smooth.
3. Spread the pesto evenly over the salmon filet. Arrange two tomato slices on top of each filet. Cover the baking dish with foil. (Try to avoid placing the foil directly onto the pesto, leave some space instead.)
4. Bake for 12-15 minutes for individual fillets, or 16-25 minutes for a large whole fillet, until the salmon is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Open a corner of the foil to test for doneness; if not done yet, reseal and return to the oven until done.

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a half-sheet pan with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Rinse the salmon and feel for any bones to remove. Pat the fish dry with paper towels. If there are any parts of the salmon that are very thin compared to the rest, use kitchen scissors or a knife to trim them off so you can bake the thin pieces for less time than the rest.
3. Place the salmon on your lined pan. Spray the salmon with cooking spray and sprinkle on black pepper.
4. Scoop a tablespoon of pesto onto a large piece of salmon, a couple inches from one end. Scoop another tablespoon of pesto onto the salmon, near the opposite end. (For best results, do not spread the pesto until after the fish is baked. See notes.) Continue placing two tablespoons of pesto onto each large piece of salmon. For any small thin, pieces, you'll probably just need one tablespoon of pesto.
