Super good Salmon

I make this salmon recipe at least once a week, and miraculously, we never get tired of it. Dusty, being the thoughtful person he is, decided we needed to share this recipe on the blog. Some of you might have seen a similar recipe, but this is the version we have found to be the best. It only takes about two minutes to prepare and is delicious.

First, line a baking pan with parchment paper. The skin of the fish should stick to the paper when you serve it, so you don't have to deal with yucky skin on the plate. Place a good-sized fresh salmon fillet on the pan. You can find them at the meat counter in your supermarket.



Second, spread any kind of honey dijon or spicy brown mustard over the fillet. We've tried lots of kinds and they all work well.

Thirdly, sprinkle the fillet with kosher or sea salt.



Fourthly, sprinkle and coat the fillet with plain or italian breadcrumbs. Basically whatever you have on hand. Or make your own with bread and a processor.



Lastly, finish off with your favorite herbs. We like dill weed and parsley. Bake at 425 for around 15 minutes or until the salmon is flaky.



Pull it out of the oven, and slice into 4 pieces.



Serve with lemon slices, to squeeze on top, and with some good vegetables. Hope some of you enjoy this too easy and super yummy salmon!

I don't know why, but I got a kick out of the spatula in hand as it is spreading on the dijon mustard. And plus, the finished product looks fabulous! Thanks for sharing.

I'm going to have to try this. I have a husband who hates most fish, but this seems like something he might enjoy. Thanks for the idea!
