Baked Salmon Fillets Dijon

from Living Waters Ranch

4 (4-oz.) salmon fillets
3 T prepared Dijon-style mustard
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1/4 c. Italian-style dry breadcrumbs
1/4 c. butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Line a shallow baking pan with foil.  I used my Pampered Chef bar pan lined with parchment.  Place salmon, skin side down, on foil.  Spread a thin layer of mustard over each fillet and season with salt and pepper to taste.  Top with bread crumbs and drizzle with melted butter.  Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.

This was a great salmon dish!  I needed something that was easy and mild (again, I have kids) yet has wonderful flavor.  I served it with white (instant) rice seasoned with butter, salt, and pepper, and a green salad.
