Here are pictures from us cooking this recipe
Salmon is such a god fish and very healthy. We don’t get to eat it as often as we would like just because it cost much more then other fish types. So when we do cok it we wnt to make sure it tast great and this recipe delivers on flavor!
First pat the fish dry with paper towel, then add a little bit of salt and pepper to each side of the salmon.
In a small bowl we made the bread crumb mixture with the almonds, parsley, and breadcrumbs.
In another small bowl, we mixed the sauce by combining; melted butter, mustard, and honey.
We lined a baking sheet with foil and sprayed with cooking spray. Then we gently laid out the fish fillets.
Next, using a basting brush, we coated the top side of the salmon with the mustard mixture.
Lastly, spread the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the mustard mixture and gently press to keep the topping in-place.
Here is what the salmon looked like after coming out of the oven. We normally serve salmon with some kind of light rice, orzo, or quinoa based salad.
