Oven Fried Lemon Dill Salmon

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

In a shallow dish, add the Panko bread crumbs. Set aside.

Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. I like to brown the butter for extra flavor. Then add the lemon juice and whisk until well blended. Remove the skillet from heat and let butter mixture cool 5 minutes. Next dip salmon fillets in lemon butter, turning each fillet to coat both sides. Sprinkle each fillet with lemon pepper seasoning and dried dill weed. Then dip each filet into panko bread crumbs. Press crumbs onto fillets, coating each side. Place breaded, seasoned fillets into the 9×13 baking dish. Sprinkle lemon zest over fillets. Spray the top of each fillet with cooking spray to lightly coat the bread crumbs.

Place uncovered dish with salmon fillets into the preheated oven. Bake 10-12 minutes until fish easily flakes with a fork. Serve immediately.
