How to Make Baked Salmon With Lemon Oregano Crumb Topping

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, the zest of 1 lemon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor.
  3. With the food processor running, add 2 cloves garlic through the feed tube and process until finely chopped.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
  5. Add 1/2 cup breadcrumbs and stir to combine.
  6. Toss the breadcrumb mixture with 6 tablespoons melted butter.
  7. Pat the salmon fillets (about 1.5 lbs total) dry with paper towels.
  8. Generously butter a shallow baking pan.
  9. Place salmon fillets in the pan, skin-side down.
  10. Brush the salmon with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
  11. Cover the salmon with the crumb mixture.
  12. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  13. While the salmon bakes, prepare the spiced parsley mayonnaise: Combine 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
  14. Cover and let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  15. Stir in 1/2 cup mayonnaise before serving.
  16. Serve the baked salmon with the spiced parsley mayonnaise.
