Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup almond meal
  • 1/4 cup panko
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 24 ounces salmon fillets -- about 1-inch thick
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 4 lemon wedges

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 500°.
  2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a shallow dish; set aside.
  3. Brush tops and sides of fish with juice: sprinkle with salt and pepper. Working with 1 fillet at a time, dredge top and sides in almond mixture; place skin side down on broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle any remaining crumb mixture evenly over fish; press gently to adhere. Bake at 500° for 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
