One of the many ways of preparing salmon on a busy work week is this recipe right here! I am all for meal prepping. If it saves me time in the kitchen during the weekdays, I'm all in. This recipe is a good one to keep on hand.
It's a great meal prep meal to have for the week. The fresh minced garlic with fresh grated parmesan gets super crispy and crumbled top from the panko breadcrumbs adds a nice bite to the flaky salmon and is super tasty! It pairs well with a salad, steamed rice or vegetables!
This low calorie, clean eating meal is made at least once a month in my house!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Pat and dry salmon fillets and place them on a baking sheet over parchment paper to prevent from sticking
- In a small mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, bread crumbs, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan, parsley, crushed red pepper flakes, zested lemon, salt and pepper.
- Slice the thick part of the salmon on top about half way in, so the mixture can be placed in the little pocket.
- Season the salmon fillets lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place the mixture topping in the little pocket and entirely on each of the fillets evenly, so the salmon is completely coated.
- Place the salmon fillets in the oven in the top middle rack for about 13 minutes.
- Serve with steamed rice and vegetables. Garnish with a lemon wedge and hot sauce (sriracha) *optional

When is the oil used?
We love salmon and I cook it weekly - always up for new recipes. My question is the skin. Many times it comes with the skin on and I usually leave it on and then slip a spatula in between skin and fish after cooking. What's your recommendation? Thanks, lindalee
