Instructions
TO MAKE YOUR PRETZEL CRUST
- Combine your pretzels and butter in your food processor. Process until you have an even crumble—about 2 minutes. You should be able to press a clump in the palm of your hand and it should partially stick together. If it doesn't hold at all, add a tablespoon of butter at a time.
TO CRUST YOUR SALMON
- Preheat your oven to 350º.
- Drizzle your olive oil over your salmon. Use your hand to rub it in.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper over your salmon.
- Use your hands to press an even layer of your processed pretzel crumble over the top of your salmon filet.
TO COOK YOUR SALMON
- Transfer your crusted salmon to your silpat lined baking sheet.
- Bake until your salmon has an internal temperature of 135º or to 145º if you prefer it on the drier side. About 20 minutes. If you use a probe, you don't have to watch the time, it will alert you when your fish is ready.
- Let your fish sit for 5 minutes to rest before serving.
