How to Make Alaska Salmon Bake With Pecan Crunch Coating
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, melted butter, and honey.
- In a separate bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs, chopped pecans, and parsley.
- Season both sides of each salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets on a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Brush the top of each fillet evenly with the mustard-honey mixture.
- Generously sprinkle the pecan bread crumb mixture over the mustard-honey coating.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets; start checking at 10 minutes for thinner fillets.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh lemon wedges.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
