2 egg yolks
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Zest of one lemon
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 tsp. dill + additional for the salmon
Dash of hot sauce (Crystal is what we use), optional
8 oz. lump crab meat
1/4 - 1/3 cup Panko bread crumbs
4 salmon fillets
Olive oil

Steps:

1. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper, dill, and hot sauce (if using). 2. Carefully add in the crab and combine. 3. Add the bread crumbs and stir gently to incorporate. 4. Set aside for 15 minutes to allow the mixture to come together. 5. Heat oven to 375°. 6. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and drizzle with olive oil. 7. Place the salmon fillets skin side down on the sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the fish and season with salt and pepper. Dust with a sprinkling of dill. 8. Top each fillet with the crab mixture. 9. Bake for 18 - 25 minutes (depends on the thickness of your fish). Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork. 10. If tops need additional browning, run under the broiler for a minute.
