Brush both sides of salmon with olive oil, about 1 tablespoon in total. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Brush the grill grates with oil, then grill the salmon for about 3 minutes per side, or to the desired doneness. If using skin-on salmon, grill the skin side up first.

Remove from heat, then stir in the pesto.
