Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray (line with foil for easy cleanup, if desired).
Place salmon (skin side down) on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, stir together melted butter and lemon juice. Brush HALF of the butter mixture on the salmon.
Add breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and basil to the remaining melted butter mixture. Stir to completely combine.
Use your fingers to gently press the buttered breadcrumbs onto the fish.
Bake for 12-18 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and topping is golden brown (total cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your fish).

Notes

Cooking Just for Two? Cut the ingredients in half to cook just 1/2 lb. of salmon. The baking instructions remain the same.
