Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0 non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

Step 2

Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and drizzle with lemon juice. Season each fillet with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, parsley, dill, Parmesan cheese, and panko breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Spray a grill-safe baking sheet or fish tray with non-stick cooking spray and place the salmon fillets on it, skin-side down.

Step 5

Evenly distribute the herb and cheese mixture over the top of each salmon fillet, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet with the salmon on the grill and close the lid. Grill for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the salmon reaches 145°F and the topping is golden brown.

Step 7

Carefully remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad and enjoy!
