Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets, about 6 to 8 ounces each
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard , or a spicy brown mustard
  • ⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 400°F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Arrange the salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle the fillets lightly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Coat the tops of the fillets with the mustard. Spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons on each fillet.
  • In a bowl, toss the panko crumbs with the melted butter, chopped parsley, and Parmesan cheese, and a dash each of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. For a finer coating, blitz the crumbs in a food processor.
  • Sprinkle the crumb mixture on each fillet and pat them down gently so they adhere to the mustard.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or just until the salmon is done but still moist. Look for a temperature of about 130 F to 140 F on an instant-read thermometer (the USDA recommends 145 F for fully cooked safety, but it may be dry at that temperature).
