Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
- 3 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 Tbsp honey
- 1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs regular or panko
- 1/4 cup very finely chopped pecans
- 4 tsp minced fresh parsley
- 4 (6 - 8 oz each) salmon filets skin on, or skinless
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- Lemon wedges for garnish
- fresh parlsey for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, stir together butter, mustard and honey.
- In another small mixing bowl, stir together breadcrumbs, pecans, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Add salmon filets to prepared baking sheet. Pat dry with paper towels, then brush each filet with mustard mixture, on the top and the bottom.
- Sprinkle the tops of the filets evenly with breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently into the salmon.
- Bake 12-15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve garnished with lemon wedges and/or a sprinkle of extra minced fresh parsley.
Notes
- The USDA recommends cooking salmon to an internal temperature of 145°F, which is measured in the thickest part of the salmon filets. Keep in mind, salmon will continue to cook a little more after it has been removed from the oven, so I feel safe pulling the salmon from the oven when the internal temperature reaches about 140°F.
- Serving size is 1 salmon filet.
