Salmon With Parmesan, Garlic and Herb Crust- Use Chicken or Pork

"Yummy and versatile. You can use this recipe for salmon, flounder, chicken or pork. I've used it for all of those and it always turns out fabulous! It's fast, too so it's good for a weeknight meal. It's really good with macaroni and cheese."

directions

  • Heat oven to 400. Lightly coat your baking dish with non-stick spray (I always use olive oil in a Misto- love those things).
  • In a food processor, mince the garlic clove then add the parsley and pulse until combined, about 15 seconds. Add the bread, cheese, oil, salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Pulse until well combined.
  • Arrange the fish or meat in the baking dish. Spread with mustard then pat the crumbs on top of each one.
  • Bake until browned and cooked through-
  • 20 min or so for salmon.
  • 15 min or so for flounder.
  • 25 min or so for chicken.
  • 30 min or so for pork.
  • Cooking times will depend on the thickness of your fillets.

  1. Really, really good (even after a major misstep)! I used 2 cloves of garlic (because I always double it) and one whole salmon fillet that was 1-1/2 lbs. I specially bought the low-carb whole wheat bread, and then couldn't find it. I tore my kitchen apart, then ended up accusing the dog of stealing it (wrapper and all) and resorted to some very dense "When Pigs Fly" brand rye bread. I thought it would be awful with that substitution, but it wasn't even noticeable. The flavor was wonderful, and the fresh parsley and Dijon mustard really gave this nice pizzazz. I will be making this again (hopefully, with the right bread, which I found had fallen behind the bread box). Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.
     
  2. Wonderful! I reduced the serving to 2, which fed three of us for dinner. I used 1/4c bread crumbs instead of bread, which I never have good luck with in the food processor. Broiled on Lo until the topping was brown, then baked another 8 minutes at 400 to reduce the amount of time I had to have the oven on in the heat this evening. The salmon was very flavorful and the topping was beautiful. We all loved it and I'd be happy to make again!
     
  3. Great recipe made using chicken because that is what I had on hand. The chicken was cooked perfectly, the crust was gold brown, and the mustered rounds it out by giving you that dressed up taste and feel such as you would get if you had gone to a restaurant. This would be a great dish for get company, or when you wish to impress that some one special as it has a very impressive taste and presentation.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a full-time Realtor for Century 21 Graham Realty during the day and at night I'm a wife and mother of one 6 year old daughter, Angelina plus one small dorkie dog (dachshund-yorkie mix) named Petey. I love to cook and experiment with new recipes. I've been collecting cookbooks (I have a few hundred) and recipes for as long as I can remember. I like to buy recipe boxes at yard sales and auctions and peak through them for yummy recipe gems. I've found some really amazing recipes that way. I'm a huge fan of Le Creuset enameled cast iron cookware. I've been collecting different pieces for a few years now. I always considered myself a great cook but these pans raise things to a whole new level. I'm planning to post all of my favorite recipes that I've collected over the years. I have all these clippings and pieces of paper and magazine clips that are everywhere. My recipe boxes are packed with these things and it's time to organize the whole mess. I suppose it will take years (did I say years?!?) to get them all posted but it's worth it. So keep checking back to my posts for new goodies. I can't wait to see what long lost gems turn up. I've already run across several of my old favs. Isn't it nice to have all your best recipes all organized right here? I've also been printing them out and putting them in a nice new binder where I can actually find them when I want to make them. I LOVE this site. I have found some of the best recipes EVER right here on 'Zaar. There are some fantastic cooks here and I just want to say "Thank you" to all of you who have made me look like the greatest cook on the planet with your wonderful recipes. I try to make as many new ones each week as I can. It's so much fun experimenting. My DH of 9 years is my guinea pig- he will eat ANYTHING I put in front of him. My little girl... well, she's more of a challenge to please. Not really picky but she doesn't really like meat or stuffing or peppers or mushrooms or.... oh, the new one is onions. I could go on but you get the idea. You probably have or had one just like her. They seem to learn all about these things that they don't like at school. All of the sudden...they don't like something they've been eating for 3 years because their friend "Alyssa" doesn't like it. What a challenge it is feeding these little creatures! That's her and Petey in the picture above. <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/soup_banner.jpg"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Recipezaar%20Album/iplaytagin.jpg"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/pt-shutterbug-banner-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/holidaybadge.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/potluckpbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/7505/mybanner4a394ee84d5f0.jpg" ><img src="http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/ZaarStar-AMBanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/Copyoftag300-banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Susie's Banner for Newest Zaar Tag"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Banners/holidayprmr.jpg"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Holiday-plaid_HPI.gif"> <img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y22/dcmac/PAC%20Fall%2009/Image1.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><IMG src ="http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/cupwitchanimation-small3.gif"> <img src ="http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/lazymecookathon.jpg"> <img src="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picwJT0Wr-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Banners/AMBadgeGenTP2009.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
