Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon

April 26, 2018 by Lovoni +

On one of my trips back home to Australia a couple of years ago my sister cooked salmon for dinner one night. Now I’m not a big fan of salmon unless it’s smoked so I surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The salmon was perfectly cooked & had a crunchy, lemony breadcrumb topping. Of course I asked her for the recipe. Turns out she’d cheated a little – it was a prepared Jamie Oliver product she’d bought from a local supermarket – Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon (my title, not Jamie’s). 

Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon

Nothing wrong with that, especially as it was so good. Cooking shortcuts here & there are smart timer-savers.  The package directions state: coat the the raw salmon in the breadcrumb mixture then bake or fry. Then as it cooks you scurry to get some veggies cooked or a salad tossed (my words & not part of the package directions I’m sure). When I returned to my home to the US, I tried to replicate the crunchy breaded salmon I’d had back in Australia. And I think I nailed it. I’ve made it several times since, each time a little different because until now, I’ve never written down the recipe. My recipe is almost as fast to make as the ready-made version. And equally as good or dare I say…better. 

Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon

I tend to changed the herb combination each time I cook this recipe. It’s really whatever I have growing or lurking in the fridge. Although I’ve specified Italian parsley, rosemary & thyme in the recipe, use whatever herbs you have on hand. Tarragon, rosemary & basil would be a lovely combination. Or just one herb, such as basil (which I think is in Jamie’s salmon). I have two big pots of basil on my windowsill in the kitchen. Silly me for not adding it, especially as it’s my fave. Salmon is robust in flavor so it can handle big flavors such as rosemary, so don’t be timid. 

Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon

What I really enjoyed about this salmon recipe is the crunchy breadcrumb coating. You coat almost anything in breadcrumbs, cook it until crunchy & I will eat it. I stayed in Cody, Wyoming  for a couple of months & ate a LOT of bull testicles, affectionately called “Rocky Mountain Oysters”. Those cowboys have the right idea to take something most people wouldn’t eat, slice ’em thin, coat ’em in breadcrumbs, deep-fry until golden & crunchy then serve ’em with a horseradish-meets-ketchup cocktail sauce. Those beauties were so darn good I ate them more times than I care to mention. Texture. It’s all about the texture. Ah, fun memories. And so much good food, wine & great company. 

Parmesan Herb Crusted Salmon

Serve the salmon with roasted beets & steamed green beans. Maybe a salad. Or as I did: steamed little new potatoes & roasted broccoli. The whole meal took about 30 minutes start to finish. Making this perfect for a quickie meal during the week that by all appearances, seems a little special. Serve with a chilled, dry rosé or pinot noir. Okay, I’m off to start clearing out our kitchen cupboards as the kitchen renos are starting very soon. Before I go, if you’re looking for more salmon recipes, what about Quick Asian Fishcakes (a 5 ingredient Jamie Oliver recipe on my site) or Smoked Salmon & Asparagus Pasta Salad ?

Ingredients
  1. 1 lb (453g) salmon fillet
  2. 1 large egg
  3. 2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
  4. 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  5. 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
  6. 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  7. 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
  8. 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
  9. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  10. pinch of salt
  11. 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  12. pinch of nutmeg
  13. cooked broccoli & baby potatoes, to serve
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. If salmon still has skin, take a thin, long-blade sharp knife & with skin-side down, make a small cut on one corner as close to the skin as possible & use this piece to hang on to while you remove the rest of the skin (having a little salt on your fingers helps), run the knife under the salmon, as flat as possible to the cutting board to remove the skin. If the salmon already has the skin removed then omit this step. Cut salmon in half, folding any thin sections underneath themselves so each piece is approximately the same thickness. Place on baking sheet.
  3. Lightly beat the egg in a small mixing bowl using a fork. Add the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, herbs, lemon zest, garlic, salt, pepper & nutmeg; mix until thoroughly combined. Pile & press the mixture onto the top of each piece of salmon. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon, until salmon is cooked & flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serves 2 to 4.

Our darling mum passed away last year. I hear her Our darling mum passed away last year. I hear her voice every day offering support & advice. One of my favourites is this simple ‘start how you want to finish’ advice. It was told to her when she decided she’d take care of her mum, my nan, at home when she became very ill & needed around the clock care. 
As a new year lies before us & we can make it anything we want. So go forth how you want to continue. For me that’s with intent, small reasonable goals, simplifying home & life where possible & taking care of myself both my mental & physical health. 
Last year was a fucker, this year I’m taking care of me. We are nothing without our health. 
Happy 2023 to those who’ve stuck around with me, especially during my absence over the last 12 months, & to the newcomers who’ve joined the Fresh Hunger community. Thank you for your support. I’ve got some fun, helpful projects coming your way I can’t wait to share with you all. L xo
