Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
In a small bowl, combine chopped parsley, dill, basil, lemon zest, and garlic powder. Mix well.
In another bowl, combine olive oil, salt, and pepper with the panko breadcrumbs. Stir until the mixture is evenly coated.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread a generous amount of the herb mixture evenly on top of each salmon fillet, pressing down lightly to adhere.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture generously over the herbs to create a crust.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve each fillet with a lemon wedge.
