Panko Crusted Salmon

This recipe is for all my salmon loving peeps. These salmon fillets are coated in a  lemony garlic mayonnaise and baked with a crispy panko-parmesan crust.  It really doesn’t get any simpler or more delicious than this. Tip: you can easily make this recipe with a whole fish fillet instead of small fillet cuts. I just used smaller cuts since they look more presentable on photo. 

Ingredients:

2 lb salmon fillets

3 tbsp mayonnaise

3 tbsp sour cream

1 tbsp lemon juice 

1 garlic clove, grated or pressed 

salt & pepper to taste 

1 cup panko bread crumbs 

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 

1 tbsp dried dill

3 tbsp butter, melted 

 

Instructions: 

1 . Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, and garlic in a small bowl and set aside. 

2 . Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Then transfer the fish to a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. 

3 . Spread the mayonnaise mixture on top of each fillet.

4 . In a separate bowl, combine panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, dried dill, and melted butter. 

5 . Evenly spread the bread crumb mixture over the mayonnaise on each salmon fillet. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.
