Steps:
- To make the Lemon Oil:
- Cut the lemons in half and squeeze the juice into a small saucepan. Drop in the juiced lemon halves and add the garlic, shallots, oil, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 30 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate overnight. (If you haven't planned ahead, just let the oil sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.) Strain the oil, pressing down hard on the solids before discarding them. Taste for salt. Lemon oil will keep, covered and refrigerated, for 2 weeks.
- To make the Hummus:
- Put the chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a food processor and pulse until the chickpeas are coarsely chopped. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Turn the processor on again and drizzle in the oil. Process until the hummus is smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Scrape the hummus into a bowl, cover it, and set it aside at room temperature until needed, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Bring the hummus back to room temperature before you use it.
- To make the Salad:
- Combine the cucumber, onion, and haricots verts in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- To make the Fish:
- Position an oven rack 6 inches from the broiler and heat the broiler. Brush a baking sheet with oil and slide it under the broiler to heat for 5 minutes.
- Put the cornmeal, flour, and sea salt in a shallow bowl and whisk to combine. Dip the skin side of the salmon into the breading mix and set it, skin side down, on the baking sheet. Brush the fish with oil and salt it lightly. Broil the fish for 1 1/2 minutes. Change the oven setting to 500°F and bake the fish for 7 1/2 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Adjust the oven rack so it's about 3 inches from the broiler and turn the broiler back on. Spread the top of each fillet with one-quarter of the hummus. Use the back of a spoon to make peaks in the hummus (the uneven surface will give you better browning), and sprinkle each fillet with 1 teaspoon panko. Slide the baking sheet back into the oven and broil until the hummus is browned, about 2 1/2 minutes.
- To serve, divide the salad among 4 dinner plates, spreading it out in the center of each plate. Sprinkle each salad with 1 teaspoon parsley and drizzle with 1/4 cup lemon oil. Set the salmon on top of the salad and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 11x7-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and place salmon in it.
- In a food processor or blender, combine the remaining ingredients except the butter and process until the onions are in crumbs (about 5 seconds). Place 1/4 cup of the onion mixture on each fillet and drizzle with the melted butter. Bake for 20 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillet. Look for a fillet that is at least 1 inch thick and has a good amount of fat. This will help the salmon stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooking will make the salmon dry and tough.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot out of the oven, so don't let it sit for too long before serving.
Conclusion:
Onion crusted salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The crispy onion crust adds a lot of flavor and texture to the salmon, and the salmon itself is cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
