🧂 Ingredients

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
2 Spray a baking pan with cooking spray. Place salmon fillets on the pan skin side
down (if using salmon that has skin attached).
3 Mix the 1/2 tbsp of olive oil with the minced garlic and lemon juice. Brush
mixture evenly on the salmon fillets.
4 Mix the panko, lemon zest, and lemon pepper together in a small bowl. Add 2 tsp
of olive oil and combine until the mixture resembles crumbly sand.
5 Top each salmon fillet evenly with the lemon pepper mixture, pressing down to
adhere the crumb topping to the fish.
6 Bake for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature is at least 145 degrees F.
Place under the broiler on high for an additional 2-3 minutes for a beautiful
crispy brown finish.
