Updated August 24, 2010

Ingredients

  • 1
    salmon fillet, 1 1/4 pounds
  • 2
    tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  • 1/4
    teaspoon salt
  • 3/4
    cup fresh white bread crumbs, 1 slice
  • 1/4
    cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2
    tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
  • 2
    teaspoons grated lemon peel
  • 1/4
    teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Spray shallow baking pan with cooking spray. Pat salmon dry with paper towel. Place salmon, skin side down, in pan; brush with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Sprinkle with salt.
  • 2
    Mix bread crumbs, cheese, onions, lemon peel and thyme in small bowl. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Press bread crumb mixture evenly on salmon.
  • 3
    Bake uncovered 15 to 25 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with fork. Serve immediately.

  • A bread with a medium texture instead of a soft texture works best for this recipe so the topping bakes up crunchy. It’s also best to serve the fish as soon as it comes out of the oven.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled for 8 servings.
