Provided by Chef mariajane

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 15m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 1/2 teaspoons apricot jam
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 -3 lbs salmon fillets, skinned
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • On a plate, thoroughly combine walnuts and breadcrumbs; set aside. In a small bowl, combine jam and vinegar.
  • Season salmon with salt and pepper and brush both side with jam and vinegar mixture. Press walnut mixture evenly into both sides of salmon, finishing off the top sides with any excess mixture, pressing it in so it will hold.
  • Place salmon on a rimmed baking sheet; bake at 400F for about 15 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  • TIP: When buying salmon, ask the fishmonger to skin it for you.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet. Look for a thick, center-cut fillet that is about 1 inch thick. This will ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and remains moist.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices. Fresh herbs and spices will add a lot of flavor to the salmon. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the salmon until it is just opaque in the center, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the salmon is moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Walnut and oat crusted salmon is a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in just a few minutes. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the walnut and oat crust adds a delicious crunch. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
