Dijon Potato-Crusted Salmon
You'll often find potato-crusted salmon in elegant restaurants—why not try making it at home instead?
Ingredients
- 4 Tbs fat-free mayonnaise
- 2 Tbs Dijon mustard
- 2 tsp grated lemon zest
- 4 6 oz skinless wild Alaskan salmon fillets
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup dehydrated potato flakes
- 1 Tbs olive oil
- Lemon wedges
Directions
- In large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon zest. Sprinkle salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Pour potato flakes onto a large plate.
- One fillet at a time, coat salmon with mayonnaise mixture and then with potato flakes, turning to coat both sides of the fillets. Place each coated fillet on a clean plate and repeat with the remaining fillets.
- In large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add the salmon, rounded side down, and cook until golden, about 5 minutes.
- Carefully turn fillets over and cook until golden and fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer salmon to serving plates and serve with lemon wedges.
