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.

  • Choose Quality Salmon: Opt for fresh or frozen salmon fillets of good quality. Wild-caught salmon is often preferred for its flavor.
  • Glaze Consistency: The pecan honey glaze should have a slightly thick, syrupy consistency. Adjust honey or water as needed.
  • Glazing Technique: Apply the glaze evenly to the salmon fillets using a brush, covering all sides. This helps create a flavorful crust.
  • Cooking Temperature: Cook the salmon at a moderate temperature (around 375°F) to ensure even cooking without burning the glaze.
  • Basting: Baste the salmon occasionally with the remaining glaze while cooking. This keeps it moist and adds extra flavor.
  • Resting: Before serving, let the cooked salmon rest for a few minutes. This helps the juices redistribute, resulting in a more succulent dish.
