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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh salmon steaks: Fresh salmon steaks will yield the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh salmon steaks, frozen salmon steaks can also be used, but they should be thawed completely before cooking.
  • Season the salmon steaks liberally: Don't be afraid to season the salmon steaks liberally with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Cook the salmon steaks at a high temperature: Cooking the salmon steaks at a high temperature will help to sear the outside of the fish and keep the inside moist and flaky.
  • Don't overcook the salmon steaks: Salmon steaks are best when they are cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking the salmon steaks will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the salmon steaks with your favorite sides: Salmon steaks can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Baked salmon steak is a delicious and healthy meal that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can ensure that your baked salmon steak turns out perfect every time.
