Crispy Garlic Parmesan Salmon


For people who know me, know that I am vegetarian (well pescatarian to be exact), so I don't eat meat! Exceptttt for fish! I really enjoy most fish, plus I try to eat it once in a while so I can get some good protein!

Salmon is one of my favorite types of fish, so when I was scrolling through pinterest and found this
Crispy Garlic Parmesan Salmon, I had to try it out. Long story short, I loved it, and it was very easy to make and cook!!




INGREDIENTS
2 pounds side wild salmon fillet
2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup melted butter salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS


  1. Position a rack in the middle fo the oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking tray with a large piece of foil. Place the salmon fillet, skin down, on the baking sheet; Set aside.
  2. Mix together the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, and garlic in a small bowl. Pour in the melted butter; Season with 3/4 tsp salt and 1/3 tsp pepper (or to taste). Using your hands, mix the ingredients together until the breadcrumbs absorb the butter (about 40 seconds).
  3. Pour the mixture over the salmon, pressing it into the top until the fillet is completely covered. Lightly spray the salmon with cooking oil spray for a golden crumb.
  4. Bake uncovered for 12-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of your fillet), until the crust is golden and the salmon is cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Serve with lemon wedges and a squeeze fo lemon. Salmon goes great with steamed vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
