PANKO PARMESAN SALMON
Of all the recipes I make, this one is my husband's favorite for salmon. It's made with panko, or Japanese bread crumbs, which are very light and crunchy, mixed with Parmesan cheese. It's baked in the oven until the panko is nice and toasted.

Tips:
- Carefully choose your salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon whenever possible. It's more sustainable and has a better flavor than farmed salmon.
- Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it gently. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
- Make sure the pesto is fresh: Fresh pesto is essential for this dish. If you can't find fresh pesto, you can make your own using a food processor or blender.
- Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: The Parmesan cheese is a key ingredient in both the pesto and the cheese crisps. Make sure to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy the taste of.
- Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will help to prevent it from drying out.
