This is a recipe I adapted from TOH. This is a beautiful presentation and goes together in around 1/2 an hour. Definitely pretty enough for company. It has a delicate flavor. We have a friend in Alaska who sends us fresh salmon.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 (3 -4 lb) salmon fillets, 3-4 pounds total
Directions:
1. In a bowl, mix bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, parmesan, thyme and salt, set aside.
2. Place salmon skin side down on foil-lined baking dish.
3. Mix butter and lemon juice in bowl.
4. Brush salmon with butter-lemon juice mixture, using about 3/4 of the mixture.
5. Top with crumb mixture, patting it on by hand.
6. Drizzle remaining butter mixture over top.
7. Bake at 350 until flakey, about 25 minutes, can brown under broiler if desired.
8. Now, the original recipe called for 2-1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 6 tablespoons of parmesan cheese, twice as much parsley, 1 tablespoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 6 tablespoons of butter. We thought this tasted wonderful as is, you be the judge.
