Baked Salmon with Honey Mustard and Pecan Panko Crust image

This baked salmon with a crunchy topping takes just 20 minutes to make, yet it's elegant enough for company.

Provided by Jennifer Segal, adapted from Betsy Goldstein's recipe

Categories     Dinner

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon honey
¾ teaspoon salt, divided
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup panko
¼ cup finely chopped pecans
2 teaspoons finely chopped parsley (optional, for color)
4 (6-oz) salmon fillets
1 lemon, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup, and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, melted butter, honey, ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  • In another small bowl, mix together the panko, pecans, parsley (if using), and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • Spoon the honey-mustard mixture evenly over the salmon fillets. (Don't worry if it drips down the sides a little.) Sprinkle the panko-pecan mixture over the glaze, pressing it lightly so it adheres.
  • Bake for 7-10 minutes per inch of thickness, depending on how well done you like your salmon. (If you find that the topping is browning more than you'd like before the fish is cooked through, loosely cover the salmon with foil.) Serve hot or at room temperature. (Note that if your salmon has skin, it may stick to the foil; to remove the fish from the pan, slide a thin spatula between the skin and the flesh, leaving the skin behind.)
  • Make Ahead: The salmon can be glazed, coated with the panko-pecan mixture, and refrigerated up to 3 hours ahead of time.

MAPLE PECAN CRUSTED SALMON



Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon image

This robust dinner (or lunch!) salad is a little Southern, a little Southwestern and a lot delicious. Save time by using leftover cooked chicken from another meal or store-bought rotisserie chicken.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup pure maples syrup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 cup pecans
2 - 2 1/2 pounds salmons fillets
Salt for sprinkling
Fresh lemon wedges for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in the maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and ground mustard. Stir over medium heat until the mixture is warmed through, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • While the marinade is cooling, pour the pecans into a dry skillet and heat over medium heat, tossing frequently, until golden and toasted. Remove from heat; let the pecans cool to room temperature and then chop finely.
  • Place the salmon fillets in a gallon-sized ziploc bag. Pour the maple marinade over the salmon, coating the salmon pieces evenly. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place the toasted, chopped pecans on a plate or shallow pie dish. Remove the salmon from the refrigerator. Dip the top side of each salmon fillet in the pecan crumbs pressing the salmon lightly into the pecans so they adhere to the top of the salmon. Place the fillets pecan-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle the salmon with a pinch of salt.
  • Bake the salmon for 20-22 minutes until cooked through but still tender inside (not overcooked). The salmon should flake easily with a fork but still be soft and not dry. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.

MUSTARD CRUSTED SALMON



Mustard Crusted Salmon image

This recipe came from Taste of Home. I SO wanted to like this but with that said if I were rating it I would probably give it 4 stars for flavor but only 3 stars for appearance and texture. The bread crumbs never crsiped up and I even broiled the salmon for a few minutes. I didn't want to keep broiling it because I didn't want to overcook the fish. I did use gluten-free breadcrumbs (which might be why they didn't crisp.) So any suggestions would be appreciated because the actual flavor of the dish was REALLY good!

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon ground mustard
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Place salmon, skin side down, in a greased 8X8 square baking dish. Sprinkle with thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Spread mustard mixture over fillets; gently press breadcrumbs on top.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes until breadcrumbs are browned and fish flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

  • When choosing salmon fillets, look for ones that are thick and firm, with no signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • To ensure even cooking, bring the salmon to room temperature before cooking.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or well-seasoned cast iron skillet to prevent the salmon from sticking.
  • Cook the salmon over medium heat to prevent it from overcooking.
  • To check if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily, it is done.
  • Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Mustard-pecan crusted salmon is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion.
