Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, parsley, dill, rosemary, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
Melt the butter in a microwave or small saucepan, then pour it over the breadcrumb mixture. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and slightly sticky.
Brush the top of each salmon fillet with olive oil to help the crust adhere.
Press the herb breadcrumb mixture evenly onto the top of each salmon fillet, forming a crust.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, crust-side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy. The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145°F (63°C).
Remove from the oven and allow the salmon to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh burst of flavor.
