Why You'll ❤️ It
Seafood is always a great option when you want a meal in a hurry. Salmon is a favorite of mine because it is full of flavor and healthy fats. -Kori
Pan-seared or baked salmon is always a favorite in our house, and I try to serve it a couple of times a week. Be sure to try Pistachio Crusted Salmon or Salmon with Dill Sauce.
It's Delicious
This is and really delicious dish. The mayonnaise and pork rind crust (bread crumbs are fine too!) with the herbs and cheese makes for very moist fish.
Quick and Easy Dinner
Seafood is the perfect thing for meals in a hurry. This is a 20-minute or less meal with only 5 ingredients - 6 if you include pepper. LOL!
Low Carb and Keto
Baked salmon is gluten free, low carb, and keto-friendly. I love that it's loaded with flavor and healthy fats and you don't feel as if you are cheated by being on a diet. I always feel like I'm going without when I'm on a diet. 🙂

🥘 What You'll Need
Here are the ingredients you will need to make baked salmon with mayo:
Boneless Salmon Fillets

Parmesan Cheese
Italian Seasoning Blend
Ground Black Pepper

🔪 How To Make It
Here's how to make baked salmon with mayo:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Using a paper towel, dry salmon fillets.
Place fillets on a baking sheet coated with nonstick spray or parchment paper.
Spread mayonnaise over the top of the salmon fillets. Sprinkle with pork panko, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and a dash of pepper.
Bake in the oven 11 to 13 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
💭 Top Tips
- Need to make more or less than 4 fillets? No problem. Each fillet needs 1 tbsp of mayo, 1/2 tbsp pork panko, 1/2 tbsp cheese, and 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning.
- If you like the top a little brown and crusty, pop it under the broiler. Shorten your baking time slightly so your fish doesn't dry out.
