mustard and panko coated salmon

My sister shared this delicious salmon recipe a couple of weeks ago and we tried it out for Sunday dinner with some roasted asparagus and rice. It was very easy and very good. This recipe made two servings.

1 salmon fillet (I buy the Wild Caught Coho salmon from Trader Joe's - a great price)

1/4 cup dijon mustard

1/2 small lemon

1/2 cup panko bread crumbs (you can use regular bread crumbs)

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 Tablespoon olive oil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Rinse salmon fillet(s) and coat both sides with dijon mustard (no need to dry). Squeeze lemon over both sides.

Combine breadcrumbs and all the seasonings together in a shallow bowl. Coat the salmon with the breadcrumb mixture and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the salmon. Bake for 10 minutes until the center of the fish is cooked through.
