Alternative Baked Salmon

SUBMITTED BY: LONBINDER      PHOTO BY: Caroline C

"A simple and tasty salmon entree. Mayo and onions deliver a sweet and creamy flavor which is perfect with the crunch of the bread crumbs. I sometimes add nutmeg, totally optional. Tastes great with rice pilaf."

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup herb seasoned bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, or as needed
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder
  • 2 salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet, and set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion with dried garlic, salt and pepper until tender. Transfer to a medium bowl, and mix with bread crumbs, mustard powder and mayonnaise. If necessary, add more mayonnaise to achieve a paste like consistency.
  3. Place salmon fillets onto the greased baking sheet, and press the crumb mixture on the top so that it is about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until salmon is easily cut with a fork, then broil for 5 minutes to crisp the top.

WOW! Fantastic recipe! I found the bread crumb mixture was too dry with the 2T of mayo so I added a little more as well as 2 tablespoons of lemon juice as it added just the right flavour to the fish. I also had to bake it for 10 minutes longer than specified. Delicious will definately be my main salmon recipe!

EXCELLENT! Family loved it and will definitely make again! Made a few adjustments: used 4 cloves fresh garlic; 3 tbsp mayonnaise; 2 tbsp lemon juice; baked about 25 minutes before broiling.

My bf liked this recipe a lot, but I thought the breadcrumb crust was too dry. It's possible that I didn't use enough mayonnaise. Although I didn't care too much for the breadcrumbs, I did like the flavor of the mayonnaise and onions. It tastes very similar to the sauce of seafood dynamite served in Japanese restaurants.
