Alaska Salmon Bake with Pecan Crunch Coating

My parents bought me some salmon fillets from Costco. I love the way Costco packaged these fillets because they are individually wrapped, so you can take out however many is needed for dinner. Plus the taste is so fresh! However, I wanted to do something more than simply bake it with some salt and pepper, so I found this recipe with a yummy pecan crunch coating. What I didn't expect is that the honey mustard layer underneath the pecan and bread crumbs turned out to be so flavorful. Marc said this is the best salmon he ever eaten - I say maybe until next time I make salmon?  Haha we will see! Challenge accepted!

Serving Size:

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1-3/4 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons fresh bread crumbs
2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons finely chopped pecans
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
2 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
salt and pepper to taste
2 lemon wedges

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, butter, and honey. In another bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, pecans, and parsley.
Season each salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush with mustard-honey mixture. Cover the top of each fillet with bread crumb mixture.
Bake for 10 minutes per inch of thickness, measured at thickest part, or until salmon just flakes when tested with a fork. Serve garnished with lemon wedges.
