Coating salmon in a unique ground TLC® Roasted Almond Crunch Crunchy Granola Bar crust before pan-searing adds sophistication and richness, as does the surprisingly simple sauce (ideal for other fish dishes, too).

Makes 4 servings.

Cooking time: 30 minutes (active), 40 minutes (total)

Ingredients

  • 4 Kashi® TLC™ Roasted Almond Crunch crunchy granola bars
  • 4-4oz salmon fillets (wild caught, if available)
  • 1 organic egg white
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup organic lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon low-sodium, naturally brewed soy sauce
  • kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Using a food processor or blender make a coarse powder with the granola bars. Pour onto a large dinner plate and spread evenly.
  3. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Beat egg white with a whisk until foamy. Dip top side of salmon into egg white and then into granola bar crumbs.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to an oven-safe skillet and warm over medium heat. Place salmon in skillet, crumb side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until crumbs start to brown evenly without burning. Remove salmon from heat and carefully flip over. Put skillet into oven and bake for 4-5 minutes to cook thoroughly.
  5. While salmon cooks, whisk together lemon juice, cilantro, honey, soy sauce, and remaining oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  6. Remove salmon from oven and place on serving plates; pour citrus-soy mixture on top. Serve.

    We love salmon and eat it often, both at home and when dining out. This is “hands-down” the best salmon we have ever eaten. We liked it so much, we ate it three times in ten days. The sauce is such a great compliment to the crisp crust formed by the bars. I had not purchased these particular bars before, but now we keep them on hand and we love to eat them or use them in other recipes when I need a coating.

    This recipe was outstanding. I am a caregiver for an 88 year old lady and I’m always looking for something different and healthy for us to eat. I ran across this recipe on the internet and we enjoyed it very much. It tasted like something you would get from a gourmet chef. I didn’t have the fresh cilantro but it was very good even without that ingredient.

    See my comments-very tasty, moist and the sauce is amazing.

    I just returned from running a Fly Fishing for the Mind Seminar at Rainbow River Lodge in Alaska-the sockeye salmon was literally caught yesterday, brought home fresh without freezing it, and I tried this recipe for the first time tonight. It was incredible! Best ever for me and kudo’s to Chef Keith Snow. Everyone at our dinner was raving…the sauce is amazing. Thank you! Dr. George Patterson, Flyfishingseminars.com
    P.S. It is easier to coat the filets if you put the egg white in a ziplock bag and shake them up, same with the ground up almond bars.

    I made this today and loved it, although I wish I had all of the natural ingredients. I also didn’t include cilantro to my disappointment, but I will be making again soon and will need to try it.

    Does this have to be served warm. Can it be prepared ahead of time and served at room temp?

    I enjoyed the video! I made this recipe today and it turned out wonderfully (if I do say so myself). I made the Kashi TLC granola bars a little on the more coarse side, which worked great. I placed the granola bars in a plastic bag and beat them lightly with a rolling pin so that they were small chunks. That way the salmon had more of a thick crust on top—-which I thought was delicious. I really don’t think 349 calories is that much for a main course. I would think most of the calories come from the olive oil…which is a good fat.
