✓ 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
✓ 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet
Instructions
✓ Preheat oven to 425°F
✓ Pat salmon fillet completely dry
✓ Brush top lightly with olive oil
✓ Mix Parmesan crust ingredients in a small bowl
✓ Spread the Parmesan mixture evenly over the top of the salmon
✓ Press gently to make sure it adheres well to the oil-coated surface
✓ Place the salmon on a lined baking sheet
✓ Bake for 12–15 minutes
✓ Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving
✓ Garnish with fresh lemon juice and fresh parsley
Notes
Let salmon sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes before seasoning. Use a sharp grater for Parmesan to ensure it sticks well. The crust may slightly lose crispness if prepared up to 30 minutes in advance, but a quick 5-minute reheat brings it back. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
