Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup, and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, melted butter, honey, ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- In another small bowl, mix together the panko, pecans, parsley (if using), and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Spoon the honey-mustard mixture evenly over the salmon fillets. (Don't worry if it drips down the sides a little.) Sprinkle the panko-pecan mixture over the glaze, pressing it lightly so it adheres.
- Bake for 7-10 minutes per inch of thickness, depending on how well done you like your salmon. (If you find that the topping is browning more than you'd like before the fish is cooked through, loosely cover the salmon with foil.) Serve hot or at room temperature. (Note that if your salmon has skin, it may stick to the foil; to remove the fish from the pan, slide a thin spatula between the skin and the flesh, leaving the skin behind.)
- Make Ahead: The salmon can be glazed, coated with the panko-pecan mixture, and refrigerated up to 3 hours ahead of time.

Tips:
- For a crispy crust on the salmon, make sure to pat it dry before cooking. This will help the skin crisp up in the oven.
- If you don't have a convection oven, you can still make this recipe. Just increase the cooking time by 5-10 minutes.
- To make sure the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If it flakes easily, it's done.
- This recipe is also great for meal prep. Simply cook the salmon ahead of time and then store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to eat, reheat the salmon in the oven or microwave.
- Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
