Pecan Crusted Salmon

This meal is without a doubt a staple in my house, perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is a real quick make, healthy and of course delicious!
Note: 1 pound of salmon feeds 2 people




Pecan Crusted Salmon





1 lb Salmon
1 tbs butter, melted
1 tbs honey
1 tbs mustard
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 tbs parsley
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans (you can also use hazelnuts if you prefer)
salt
pepper




1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rinse salmon. Lay skin side down on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Combine melted butter, mustard and honey in a small bowl. Mix until well incorporated. Brush salmon liberally with mustard mixture.
3. Combine breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, and chopped pecans, mixing until well incorporated. Bread salmon liberally with breadcrumb mixture, lightly patting breadcrumbs into mustard mixture so breading sticks to salmon.
4. Bake salmon at 350 for 20 minutes until fish flakes easily. Serve fish carefully detaching from skin using a spatula. Enjoy!
