THE BEST BAKED SALMON

This simple baked salmon really hits all the right notes: tangy, sweet, savory, a little spicy and crunchy. Cooking a larger piece makes for a nice presentation. Topped with buttery golden breadcrumbs and parsley, it's perfect for a weeknight dinner yet fancy enough to serve to guests.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet, preferably center-cut
1 tablespoon Dijon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl. Mix the panko with the parsley, butter, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another small bowl.
  • Place the salmon skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and spread the surface with the Dijon. Press the brown sugar mixture all over the salmon then top with the breadcrumb mixture. Crimp all four sides of the foil to create a border around the salmon, this will help collect the juices so they don't spread and burn. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, and the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cut into four equal portions for serving.

ALWAYS MOIST SALMON ;)



Always moist Salmon ;) image

This puts two of my favorite foods together; Walla Walla sweet onions & salmon. You basically cook the salmon in it's own tartar sauce. You can kiss dry BBQ fish goodbye with this recipe ;)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium salmon steaks or fillets
1/2-1 large walla walla sweet onion
1 small lemon, the juice of
1 cup(s) best foods mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon(s) pepper to your taste
SALMON & SAUCE (ALL IN ONE ;)
1 dash(es) dill fresh, or dried

Steps:

  • Coat salmon steaks or fillets with fresh squeezed lemon juice, pepper to taste. Cover with chopped or thin sliced Walla Walla sweet onion. Gently spread Best Foods mayonnaise over the top. Season with a dash of dill to your taste. If grilling on the BBQ, place a foil tent over fish. Grill or bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. Fish is done when your fork can pull a flake from it. I love this moist preparation of fish that is served with it's own hot version of tartar sauce, without the tartar ;)
