Almond-Herbed Salmon

Step 1

Lightly coat a shallow baking pan with cooking spray; set pan aside. Preheat oven to 400°F. In a food processor or blender combine bread, almonds, basil, shallots, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and garlic. Cover and process or blend until coarsely chopped.

Step 2

Place salmon in prepared baking pan; drizzle with lemon juice. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Gently pat some of the bread crumb mixture on top of each salmon fillet.

Step 3

Bake, uncovered, for 10 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. If desired, serve with lemon wedges and/or basil.
