Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure the salmon cooks evenly.
• Line your baking sheet with Reynolds Wrap Non-Stick Foil for easy cleanup and to prevent the salmon from sticking.
• Place the salmon fillet skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle it generously with salt and pepper to taste.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, Dijon mustard, pure maple syrup, garlic powder, fresh parsley, and lemon zest. Whisk until well combined.
• Using a spatula, spread the Maple Dijon glaze evenly over the salmon fillet. Make sure to cover it well for maximum flavor.
• Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs over the glazed salmon, ensuring an even layer. The breadcrumbs will create a delightful crunchy topping as it bakes.
• Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout.
• Once baked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve it warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
