Lemon & Panko Crusted Salmon
Mayonnaise helps the dill-infused panko crust stick to salmon fillets in this ultra-quick recipe. A squeeze of lemon along with the mayo adds tanginess to the crispy crust.
Ingredients
-
⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs, preferably whole-wheat
-
Zest of 1 medium lemon, plus lemon wedges for serving
-
1 tablespoon finely chopped dill
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 ¼ pounds center-cut salmon fillet, cut into 4 portions
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
-
4 teaspoons mayonnaise
Description
-
Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

Combine panko, lemon zest, dill, oil and garlic powder in a small bowl. Place salmon on the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and pepper, then spread each portion with 1 teaspoon mayonnaise. Divide the panko mixture among the portions, pressing it into the mayonnaise.

Bake until the fish is opaque in the center, 8 to 12 minutes, depending on thickness. Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.
