Baked Salmon with Corn Flakes and Almond Topping w/ Asparagus and...

Dinner Tonight: Baked Salmon with Corn Flakes and Almond Topping w/ Fresh Asparagus, Brown Rice, and Whole Grain Bread



Seen this recipe for Salmon on an upcoming show on the Cooking Channel and had to try it! I have the recipe and instructions listed at the bottom of the post. It has crushed Corn Flakes, Almonds, and Butter among other ingredients. I salted the Salmon with Sea Salt and spread the topping on the top of the Salmon and baked at 400 degrees for 12 minutes. Came out moist and delicious. Had sides of fresh Asparagus that I lightly fried in Extra Virgin Olive Oil and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and seasoned with Sea Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Salt. Added sliced Almonds and crumbled Turkey Bacon to the Asaparagus also. Had Uncle Ben's Brown Rice and Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread as sides also.


Salmon with Flakes and Almond Topping

   Ingredients

    * 1/2 cup Kellogg's Corn Flakes (R) cereal (1/3 cup coarsely crushed)
    * 1/4 cup chopped almonds
    * 1/4 cup butter, softened
    * 1/4 cup snipped fresh basil
    * 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
    * 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
    * 2 cloves garlic, minced
    * 1/4 teaspoon pepper
    * 4 salmon fillets, skinned (about 6 oz. each)
    * Steamed spinach (optional)

Directions

Coarsely crush KELLOGG'S CORN FLAKES cereal. In a small bowl, combine almonds, butter, basil, Parmesan, lemon peel, garlic, and pepper; stir in cereal. Rinse fish; pat dry. Measure thickness of fish. Place fish on the greased rack of a broiler pan. Spoon cereal mixture on top of fillets; pat gently to spread.

Bake at 400 degrees F for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until fish flakes easily with a fork. For food safety, the internal temperature of the fish should be a minimum of 145 degrees F. Serve each piece of fish over steamed spinach, if desired, recipe follows.
