Ingredients
Scale
- 4 (6 oz) skinless salmon fillets
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 oz garlic & herb Boursin cheese, at room temperature
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment and lightly oil it.
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Place them on the prepared sheet, spaced evenly.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of Boursin cheese on top of each fillet, covering the surface but leaving a small edge.
- In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, olive oil, chopped parsley, and chopped thyme until crumbs are moistened and slightly clumped.
- Spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the Boursin-topped fillets, pressing lightly so it sticks.
- Bake the salmon for 12–15 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the topping is golden. If you want extra browning, broil 1–2 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let rest 2 minutes. Garnish with a little extra parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Ensure the salmon is patted dry before seasoning for better adherence of toppings.
