Juicy baked salmon topped with crispy Panko and parmesan crust. An easy salmon dinner recipe ready in 20 minutes!
Equipment
- baking dish
- mixing bowl
- oven
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs raw salmon
- ⅓ cup Panko breadcrumbs
- ⅓ cup parmesan cheese grated
- ¼ teaspoon dill
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoon salted butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon salt for panko mixture, + more for sprinkling
- black pepper for sprinkling
- parsley chopped, optional
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 425℉
- Pat dry salmon, place on a baking dish lined with foil (foil should be greased slightly), sprinkle the top of salmon with salt and black pepper. If using skin-on salmon, place salmon skin side down.
- Gather the sides of the foil and scrunch it up around the salmon to trap any liquid formed during baking.
- In a bowl, bring together Panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, dill, and garlic powder. Mix to combine. Add melted butter, and mix again to combine.
- Cover the top of salmon with Panko mixture.
- Bake salmon for 12 minutes. Check to see if it is done. If using a meat thermometer, the thickest part of the salmon should be 145℉. If salmon is not done, bake it for a few more minutes. Avoid overcooking salmon.
- Garnish with parsley (optional). Serve and enjoy!
Notes
If using salmon that is larger than 2 lbs, you might want to double the amount of the panko mixture.
