Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat dry 4 salmon fillets and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until combined.
  3. Step 3: Spread the mustard mixture evenly over the top of each salmon fillet, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. Step 4: Place salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the herb crust is golden brown.
