Ingredients

  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin-on or off
  • 5.2 ounces Garlic & Fine Herbs Boursin cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 medium lemon , sliced into wedges

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels to ensure proper adhesion of the topping.
  • Arrange the fillets on the baking sheet and season the tops with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Spread approximately 1.3 ounces of Boursin cheese evenly across the top surface of each salmon fillet.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and olive oil, stirring until the crumbs are uniformly coated.
  • Press the panko mixture firmly into the cheese layer on each fillet to form a crust.
  • Transfer the baking sheet to the center rack of the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  • Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
