The right amount of pesto in broiled, baked or roasted dishes generally add zest to the food. However, I don't believe adding pesto to dishes any which way would work at all. Some of the dishes I'd recommend adding pesto to are roasted potatoes, pizzas, pesto in oil as a dressing, and as a rub on toasted breads. Or,even in pastas. A touch in soups and vegetables give them just the right flavor.
The main ingredients for making a pesto are basil, pine-nuts, olive oil, garlic, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, salt and pepper. Blend them together and there you have your pesto. Keep garlic to a minimum to not make it overpowering.
