Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz) skinless salmon fillets
- 1 1/2 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice (zest lemon first)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup slightly packed finely grated parmesan
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsely
- 1 1/2 tsp lemon zest
- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 1 1/2 TBsp + 1 teaspoon garlic-infused olive oil
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray foil with non-stick cooking spray.
-
Season bottom of salmon with salt and pepper and place salmon in center of baking sheet, leaving about 3/4-inch between fillets so they can evenly cook. In a mixing bowl whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon garlic-infused olive oil and brush about 1/2 Tbsp over each fillet. Season top with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl whisk together parmesan, bread crumbs, parsley, lemon zest and thyme, then drizzle 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil into bowl and stir with a fork until evenly moistened. Spread parmesan mixture evenly over tops of salmon fillets. Bake in preheated oven until salmon fillets have cooked through, about 15 minutes. Broil during the last 1 – 2 minutes of baking for a browned crust.
