Horseradish and Crumb Crusted Salmon
Tangy horseradish, a bit of honey, melted butter and panko crumbs make an easy, flavorful crust for baked salmon fillets.
Ingredients
- 4 center-cut salmon fillets, skin removed (about 5 ounces each)
- 1/2 cup panko crumbs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1-1/2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F, coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray and arrange the salmon in a single layer.
- Combine the panko crumbs, melted butter, horseradish and honey in a small bowl. Spoon the mixture on top of the salmon and pat with your fingers to form an even crust.
- Bake the salmon for 8 minutes, then switch to the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to lightly brown the crumbs. Watch carefully – they can burn quite easily.

Recipe Notes:
Prepared horseradish can lose its flavor rather quickly, so for best results, make sure you have a fresh jar on hand.

It was delicious! My husband being a HUGE fan of everything fish, wanted Salmon and horseradish, which is how I stumbled on this recipe! After already had several bites he looked at me, walked to the fridge, took out the soy sauce, and put just a couple drops on his bite. And stated that’s the secret ingredient! So as amazing as it is the way the recipe states, anyone looking for a lil ‘kick’ of sodium, try a few drops of soy sauce! 🙂 thank you for the recipe!
