LOOKING FOR A DELICIOUS WAY TO ELEVATE YOUR WEEKNIGHT DINNER? THIS HERB-CRUSTED SALMON STEAK IS CRISPY ON THE OUTSIDE, TENDER AND JUICY ON THE INSIDE, AND BURSTING WITH FLAVOR. PAIR IT WITH ZINA’S AEGEAN SALAD FOR A PERFECT, BALANCED MEAL THAT’S BOTH LIGHT AND SATISFYING.

Here's how to make it:

Ingredients:

• 2 salmon steaks
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Lemon wedges for serving

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Season the salmon steaks with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, garlic, parsley, dill, chives, and Parmesan cheese.
4. Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top of each salmon steak to form a crust.
5. Place the salmon steaks on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the salmon is cooked through.
6. Serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of freshness.

Chef’s Tip: If you want an even crispier crust, switch the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Pair this rich, flavorful salmon with Zina’s Aegean Salad for a fresh, Mediterranean-inspired meal that balances vibrant flavors with healthy proteins. 🍋🥗
