Ingredients
- 4 6-ounce pieces Salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Whole-grain mustard
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Step 2
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Season each fillet with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard and whole-grain mustard. Spread a thin, even layer of the mustard mixture over the top of each salmon fillet.
Step 4
In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, olive oil, parsley, minced garlic, and lemon zest. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated with the olive oil.
Step 5
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the mustard-coated salmon fillets, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs to the surface.
Step 6
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The topping should be golden brown.
Step 7
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a minute or two. Serve the salmon with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top, and enjoy!
