Parmesan Citrus Baked Salmon

It's been a while since I've added anything here. I'm sorry, things got a little crazy for a while and I had to let a few things slide. I finally have a new recipe though. I hope it's enough to redeem myself.

I actually got this recipe from Sam's Club. I went on a Saturday when all their lovely samples were out and one of the booths had this. I'm just glad they had a recipe card to go with it. I've adjusted it a little, to account for my preferences.

I love seafood, and this was absolutely delicious. My kids even had thirds!



Parmesan Citrus Baked Salmon

2 pounds fresh salmon (Every time I’ve used less, 1.5-1.7 pounds, and I think I like the "sauce" a little heavier on it, so adjust it to taste if you use the full 2 pounds)
1/4 cup mayonnaise (I made mine with a little more)
2 tablespoons (heaping) grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon citrus grill seasoning (I used Tone's)
1/3 cup pita bites (I think any kind of butter cracker would work, but the pita bites are excellent)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Using a rolling pin, crush enough pita crackers to fill 1/3 cup.

Cut salmon fillet into 4 oz portions, rinse and pat dry.

In a small bowl, combine mayo, cheese and seasoning. Mix well and set aside.

Place salmon on a foil lined cookie sheet, sprayed with non-stick spray. Spread mayo mixture over fish and sprinkle with crushed pita crackers.

Bake uncovered for 12-15 minutes. Fish should flake easily with a fork when done.
