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:

  • Choose fresh, ripe strawberries: Look for brightly colored berries with no bruises or blemishes. Smaller strawberries are typically sweeter and more flavorful than larger ones.
  • Rinse the strawberries thoroughly before using them: This will remove any dirt or debris. You can also remove the hulls if you prefer, but this is not necessary.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the salmon: Some good options include rosemary, thyme, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and lemon pepper.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish that cooks quickly. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 10-12 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Baked strawberry salmon is best served hot out of the oven. You can garnish it with fresh herbs or lemon slices before serving.

Conclusion:

Baked strawberry salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of sweet strawberries, savory herbs, and tender salmon is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful dinner option, give baked strawberry salmon a try.
