Elegant walnut-crusted salmon with lemon, dill, and Dijon for a fresh, crunchy twist.
Ingredients:
  • 3 cups California walnuts
  • 6 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons lemon rind, finely grated
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 pinch Salt and pepper
  • 12 (3 ounce) salmon filets, skin on
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Begin by placing the walnuts in a food processor and pulsing them until coarsely chopped. Then, add the bread crumbs, lemon zest, olive oil, and dill, and pulse until the mixture becomes crumbly and starts sticking together. Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lay salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the baking sheets. Brush the tops with mustard. Sprinkle each fillet with 1/3 cup of the walnut-bread crumb mixture, gently pressing it onto the fish. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Remove the plastic wrap and bake the fish in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Just before serving, sprinkle the fillets with lemon juice.
