This nutty coating and cool sauce turn ordinary salmon into something special. My husband was thrilled the first time I served this, says Cheryl Bydowdki of Punta Gorda, Florida.
Ingredients:
2 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon butter, melted
cucumber sauce:
1/2 cup chopped seeded peeled cucumber
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
1/2 teaspoon snipped fresh dill or 1/8 teaspoon dill weed
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
1. Place salmon skin side down in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise over each fillet.
2. In a small bowl, combine the pecans, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley and butter; spoon over salmon. Bake at 425° for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cucumber sauce ingredients. Serve with the salmon. Yield: 2 servings.
