Feta-Crusted Salmon Recipe

•  
  
  

• What You Will Need
•  
• 1 (2 pound) salmon fillet, bones removed
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/3 cup light mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon light cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika, ground
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/3 cup dry bread crumbs

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a glass baking dish with aluminum foil. Spray bottom with cooking spray and place the salmon onto foil.  

2. In a bowl, mix together feta cheese, mayonnaise, cream cheese, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder in a bowl until smooth. 

3. Evenly spread mixture over salmon, then sprinkle bread crumbs over top, making sure to cover the salmon entirely.

*Only use a thin layer of the feta mixture; if not, it tends to overpower the salmon completely.*

4. Bake in preheated oven until easily flaked with a fork, about 35 to 45 minutes.

I served this with sauteed asparagus and mushrooms.
