Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets, skin-on
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, parsley, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix them thoroughly to create the herb crust mixture.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to ensure the topping adheres well.
Brush each salmon fillet with olive oil, coating the top and sides.
Evenly distribute the herb crust mixture over the top of each salmon fillet, pressing down gently to ensure it stays in place.
Place the coated fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the salmon with lemon wedges to squeeze over just before eating, enhancing the flavors of the dish.
