I am always brainstorming new and different ways to cook salmon so it’s not the same old thing. Plus, Dave never jumps for joy when we have salmon for dinner so I try to up the game.
My favorite way to make salmon feel special is to coat it or give it a nice crust. Great things to coat it with are sour cream, may0, or greek yogurt with lots of spices. But for this one, I went with straight butter. So good! I added parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs to give it a crunchy outer layer. I mean, cheese is never a bad idea, right?
