Herb Crusted Salmon

Herb salmon

Ingredients

  • 3 salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 green onions, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons of oregano
  • 2 teaspoons of thyme
  • 1 tablespoon of minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 3 teaspoons of dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450F
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the salmon fillets scale side down.
  3. In a bowl, mix the green onions, parsley, thyme, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and olive oil.
  4. Spread 1 teaspoon of dijon mustard on each salmon fillet and scoop an even amount of the herb mixture on each one. Make sure the top of each fillet is evenly covered with both mustard and herbs. *Tip: gently push down on the herbs so that they stay securely on the salmon. If they fall off while baking they’re more likely to burn.
  5. Bake for 7-10 minutes depending on how thick the fillets are. When the salmon is ready, it should flake apart easily.
