Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, bread crumbs
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
kosher salt and fresh black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 (6 -8 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
lemon wedge, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a small bowl combine the panko, parsley, lemon zest, 1/2 t salt, and 1/2 t pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and stir until crumbs are evenly coated. Set aside.
  • Place salmon, skin side down, on a board. Brush the tops of the fillets with a generous amount of mustard and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press panko mixture thickly on each fillet. The mustard should help the panko adhere.
  • Heat vegetable oil over medium high heat in a 12 inch cast iron skillet, or a large ovenproof pan. When oil is very hot, add salmon fillets, skin side down, and sear 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Transfer pan to hot oven and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until salmon is almost cooked and panko is browned. Remove from oven and cover with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
