- salmon fillets boneless skin on- 4 nos approximatley 150 gms each
- fresh herbs mixed- parsley, thyme, very little rosemary
- extra virgin olive oil- 15 ml
- fresh breadcrumbs- 50 gms
- salt and pepper.
- zest of lemon- 1
Season the fish with salt and pepper.combine the rest of ingredients to make a kind of sloppy paste which you will smear thickly on top of the salmon skin skin side. preheat the oven to 225 C keeping it on grill mode . pop in the salmon and roast for about 7-8 minutes (until the crust starts to get nice and brown). turn off the oven and hold for 10 minutes. that way the crust is formed and then the rest of the salmon will cook slowly in the oven and will be still juicy and moist.
serve with a side salad and some nice and crusty baguette!!
