Parmesan Crusted Salmon

Ok, to balance out all the cookies I've been making lately, I actually have been trying to experiment once again with the healthy dinners.  This recipe was one of the biggest hits!  So full of flavor while still very healthy.  A nice mix up from they same old lemon pepper and fish.  Enjoy.

Parmesan Crusted Salmon
  • 4 6-ounce salmon fillets
  • 3 tablespoons plain fat free Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons fat free mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives (can substitute finely chopped green onion)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise, Parmesan, chives, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper.
  3. Place the fillets on a lightly greased baking sheet.
  4. Spread mixture evenly over top of the salmon fillets.
  5. Bake for approximately 10 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through. I bake on the top rack which helps to brown the Parmesan mixture a bit. The mayonnaise in the topping is what will allow for the browning. (If the fillets are thin, check 2-3 minutes early. Conversely, if your fillets are thick, they may require an extra minute or two.)
