My kids love it! I’ve been serving fish to my boys since they were toddlers, so salmon truly is enjoyed by my w،le family!

Ingredients
- Wild salmon: Excellent source of Omega-3s, great source of protein, and has a delicious, rich, ،ery flavor.
- Dijon mus،: Spicy, tangy, sharp mus، flavor.
- Lemon juice: Fresh, bright acidity that pairs wonderfully with any fish.
- Garlic: Adds an extra level of flavor and ،e to the Dijon sauce.
- Kosher salt: The large flakes help to coat and bring out the natural flavor of the fish.
- Panko bread c،bs: Browns and crisps up deliciously in the oven for a wonderful crust.
How to Make Baked Dijon Salmon
S، by descaling your salmon fillet and patting it dry with a paper towel. It’s not absolutely necessary, but the scales can get stuck in your teeth, and I find it to be a less pleasant eating experience. After descaling the salmon, lay it skin side down on an aluminum foil lined sheet pan.
Next, put your Dijon mus، in a small bowl, and add the fresh lemon juice.
Then, using a microplane or grater, add freshly grated garlic to the sauce, and mix it all together.
Returning to the salmon, season it with kosher salt and black pepper.
Then spread the Dijon mixture all over the top.
Finish by coating the salmon with panko breadc،bs.
And drizzling it with olive oil. Then put it in the oven at 350 for 15-20 minutes, until breadc،bs are browned and fish is flaky.
Serve with fresh lemon juice and c،pped parsley, and enjoy your Baked Dijon Salmon!
