1. Preheat the Oven:
– Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Topping:
– In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
3. Prepare the Salmon:
– Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
– Brush each fillet generously with Dijon mustard, ensuring an even coating.
4. Add the Crust:
– Press the Parmesan and breadcrumb mixture onto the top of each salmon fillet, creating a thick crust.
5. Drizzle with Olive Oil:
– Drizzle the olive oil over the crusted salmon to help it brown and crisp up in the oven.
6. Bake the Salmon:
– Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
7. Serve:
– Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
– Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
