Salmon With Parmesan Crust

Submitted by Marla in California

"My husband and I had the most delicious parmesan crusted halibut at the Beach Cafe in Malibu, California. I decided to try to recreate the recipe using salmon instead of halibut. My husband and son claimed that it tasted quite good. So I decided to submit it here so that I wouldn't forget how to do it."

I used halibut instead of salmon, and it was delicious! I think it would be great with about any kind of fish. What great flavor. I will definetly have this again. Thanks for the great recipe!

Wow, this is great. I had 2 small fillets and only used 1/3 cup mayo (lite) and only needed 1/4 cup milk, everything else I followed recipe. I loved the moist salmon and the flaours were wonderful..salmon cooked in 20 minutes. Delicious.

The mayo/garlic/onion mixture really imparts a different flavor into this salmon recipe. The prep was simple and took very little time. I did have to stick my salmon under the broiler for just a bit to brown, as the parmesan crust didn't bake as much as I had hoped in the 30 minutes.

My husband pronounced this "the b3st salmon he's ever had" and said it "could be served in any restaurant anywhere." Marla, this is a winner!
