Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 salmon fillets 6 ounces each
  • 2 tablespoons Garlic Infused Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for the grill grates

Equipment

  • 1 Grill medium heat
  • 1 shallow bowl for the herb crust
  • 1 small brush for the mustard and oil
  • 1 Spatula for handling the salmon
  • 1 tray for assembling the fillets

Method
 

Instructions
  1. 1. Preheat a grill to medium heat and oil the grates lightly.
  2. 2. Pat the salmon fillets dry and place them on a tray, skin side down if they have skin.
  3. 3. Stir together the panko, parsley, dill, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Parmesan in a shallow bowl.
  4. 4. Brush the top of each salmon fillet with Dijon mustard, then drizzle or brush on the Garlic Infused Olive Oil.
  5. 5. Press the herb mixture firmly onto the top of each fillet so it forms an even crust.
  6. 6. Place the salmon on the grill, crust side up, and cook with the lid closed for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the fish flakes easily and the crust is golden.
  7. 7. Finish with fresh lemon juice and serve right away.

Notes

For the cleanest grill marks and easiest release, keep the salmon skin-side down if your fillets have skin. If the fillets are especially thick, let them go a minute or two longer until the center is just opaque. The Garlic Infused Olive Oil is the savory backbone here, so keep the other seasonings balanced and bright.
