Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Salmon
Rinse the New Zealand King Salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Season the Salmon
Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over both sides of the salmon fillets.
Coating
Make the Mustard Mixture
In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, lemon zest, and olive oil. Mix well until smooth.
Coat the Salmon
Spread a generous layer of the mustard mixture over the top of each salmon fillet.
Prepare the Panko Topping
In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with chopped parsley. Then, press this mixture firmly onto the mustard-covered side of the salmon fillets.
Baking
Bake the Salmon
Place the coated salmon fillets on a lined baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired.
