For the Salmon
  • 4 fillets Salmon Fresh, skinless fillets are best for optimal flavor and texture.
  • 8 oz Boursin Cheese Choose garlic & herb flavor for a creamy indulgence.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs A mix of panko and regular breadcrumbs ensures a crispy, golden crust.
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil Use extra virgin olive oil to enhance the topping's flavor and crunch.
