Parmesan Crusted Salmon (Crispy, Flavorful, Easy Dinner)

Introduction

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs (or regular breadcrumbs)
• 2 Tbsp melted butter or olive oil
• 1 Tbsp Cooking with Greens Go To Blend (or a mix of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and herbs)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 Tbsp fresh parsley or dill, chopped (plus more for garnish)
• Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
2. Pat salmon fillets dry and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
3. In a bowl, combine Parmesan, breadcrumbs, melted butter (or olive oil), Go To Blend, salt, pepper, and chopped herbs. Mix until well combined.
4. Press the Parmesan mixture evenly onto the top of each salmon fillet, gently pressing so it adheres.
5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden brown.
6. Garnish with more fresh herbs and serve with lemon wedges.
