INGREDIENTS YOU NEED

• 2 (5 – 6 oz) salmon fillets
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs

• Dip both sides of the salmon fillet in the butter mixture – coating it well.
• Transfer the salmon fillets on the breadcrumb mixture and toss the crumbs up over the edges and top of salmon. Gently press the salmon on all sides over the crumbs so it sticks well.
