Ingredients

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1½ lb salmon fillets
  • ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lb green beans
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 count lemon
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with foil or parchment.
  2. Toss the trimmed green beans with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper, and spread them around the edges of the pan.
  3. Pat the salmon dry and set it skin-side down in the middle of the pan. Stir the mayo and Dijon together and spread a thin layer over the top of each fillet.
  4. Mix the panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, remaining 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt, then press it onto the coated salmon.
  5. Bake 12-15 minutes, until the crumbs are golden and the salmon flakes easily (145°F inside).
  6. Squeeze lemon over the salmon and beans before serving.
  7. Picky eater tip: kids wary of fish can have a plain corner piece of the crunchy salmon and plain green beans.
  8. Make ahead: trim the beans and mix the crumb topping up to a day ahead, and store them separately in the fridge.

On the side: Warm pita and hummus (5 min)

1 package pita bread, 1 container hummus

  1. Warm the pitas in a dry skillet or the oven for 1 to 2 minutes, cut into wedges and serve with the hummus.
