Turn the typical fish stick into a super healthy meal with panko crusted salmon and a crunchy slaw with cooling avocado sauce.
This salmon recipe turned into one of those meals where I started with a simple idea, and it quickly expanded into a much more complicated cooking adventure totally worth the effort.
What was supposed to be a salmon filet studded with panko bread crumbs and baked in a mere 20 minutes, turned into salmon strips, crunchy slaw, and an avocado dipping sauce.
This was hardly a 20-minute meal, but the time I spent in the kitchen, and if you’re a fish stick fan, these baked salmon strips will definitely be a step up!
Happy cooking!
