- Dredge each salmon fillet in the parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crust sticks well.
- Place the coated salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
- Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges for squeezing over the top, adding a burst of brightness to each bite.
