Recipe Notes

Notes:

  1. Don’t skip patting the fish dry. Drying the fish will help the topping adhere to the fish.
  2. Salmon is a very easy fish to prepare but it can also over cook very easily. Check the temperature of the fish at 12 minutes and then again every couple minutes until it reaches the appropriate temperature.
  3. Nutritional information is estimated. Amounts will vary based on ingredient choices and serving sizes
