Potato Chip Crusted Salmon

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 1/2 cup crushed potato chips kettle cooked preferred
  • 4 tbsp fresh dill leaves choppped
  • 4 6- ounce salmon fillets skin removed
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Adjust one oven rack to uppermost position (about 3 inches from heat source) and second rack to upper-middle position.
  • Mix bread crumbs, potato chips, and dill together.
  • Drizzle lemon juice over the salmon fillets, then coat thinly with the olive oil.
  • Broil salmon on the uppermost rack until surface is spotty brown, about 8 minutes.
  • Remove fish from oven, and spread the mustard evenly over each fillet. Coat each fillet with the bread crumb mixture, pressing it into the mustard.
  • Return the fillets to the oven on the upper-middle rack, and continue broiling until crust is golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes longer. Watch closely. If some of the crumb mixture turns too dark, just brush it off. Serve immediately.

Notes

Make a large batch of the crumb topping and freeze for future use.
