Almond-Chive Crusted Salmon


Vary the herbs according to your preference; try dill, thyme or basil


I have a TON of almonds left over from an event and I'm enjoying experiment with them in many different dishes. Almonds, and nuts in general are so versitile. They can be use in any course, during meal and with almost all ingredients! Breakfast, lunch, dessert, savory, sweet...
Not to mention, nuts are super good for you

Serves 4

1/4 cup sliced almond
2 T fresh chives, chopped
1 T fresh parsley, chopped
1 t lemon zest
2 slices of bread
salt
Salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick)
Black pepper
Lemon wedges

Preheat the oven to 400
Combine the first 5 ingredients in a fod processor, along with some salt.
Process until finely chopped
Sprinkle Salmon with salt and pepper
Top the salmon evenly with the breadcrumb mixture and gently press to adhere
Place the salmon on a cookie sheet coated with cooking spray (or on parchment paper)
Bake for 10 minutes, or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
Serve with lemon wedges
