Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet, preferably center-cut
1 tablespoon Dijon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl. Mix the panko with the parsley, butter, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another small bowl.
  • Place the salmon skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and spread the surface with the Dijon. Press the brown sugar mixture all over the salmon then top with the breadcrumb mixture. Crimp all four sides of the foil to create a border around the salmon, this will help collect the juices so they don't spread and burn. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, and the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cut into four equal portions for serving.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 salmon fillets, 1-1/2 inch wide and approximately 1 inch thick (at the thickest point)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese or 1 tablespoon romano cheese, grated
1 lemon, quartered (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Pour 1 Tbsp of olive oil evenly in the bottom of a 9x9-inch glass baking dish.
  • Place the fillets in the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Pour the remaining olive oil over the fillets.
  • Sprinkle half of the garlic over the fillets.
  • Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the fillets.
  • Sprinkle the cheese over the fillets.
  • Bake for approximately 18 to 20 minutes making sure not to over bake.
  • Squeeze the juice of a lemon quarter over each fillet (optional).

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality salmon. Look for fillets that are firm and have a vibrant color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have an off odor.
  • Pat the salmon dry before cooking. This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the fish from steaming.
  • Season the salmon simply with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as lemon zest, dill, or garlic powder, to taste.
  • Cook the salmon at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin and a flaky interior.
  • Be careful not to overcook the salmon. Salmon is best when it is cooked to medium-rare or medium.
  • Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Baked salmon fillets with goat cheese and cilantro is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is flaky and moist, and the goat cheese and cilantro add a tangy and flavorful twist. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
