This post brought to you by McCormick & Company. All opinions are 100% mine.
We love fish at our house, we have a few different dishes we love to make, but Salmon is by far our favorite fish! AND apparently it’s yours too. Salmon is one of the top 10 searched family dinners!!! My kids enjoy it so much that I now make an ENTIRE salmon for my family, no leftovers. My kids are GREAT eaters, and I’m so grateful.
My kids also love to help me cook. The Reader has really started to enjoy cooking and wants to make dinner more often. This Baked Crusted Salmon is so easy that she was able to make it by herself (while I took pictures and video)!
My husband liked this recipe even better than my Lemon Baked Salmon! The flavors were the perfect balance, and I have to say I loved it too. So much I’ve made it three times this week (dinner for the family and lunch for myself twice!). It was so quick and easy, all you really need is a thawed Salmon to work with.
The crazy thing about this recipe is that I didn’t own any of these spices!!! Seriously, with my collection of spices not to have all three was really weird. But I loved them and can’t wait to use them more and in more dishes. Esp the dill, I don’t know I ever would have been interested in trying it but it totally added that just right flavor to this dish. I would definitely recommend not skipping any of these when you make it!

Seriously so simple. And the only thing that can go wrong is overcooking, always the biggest danger with Fish. I’m a big believer in oven thermometers, having the right temperature is KEY. Mine runs 25 degrees too hot! crazy, huh?
I served this with a lemon ricotta risotto (recipe next week!)
The Reader loved being my assistant!
AND I have a great giveaway for one of you from McCormick.com! Seriously amazing package, I totally would use all of these. I’ve always been a fan of their spices, In fact I use their Chili packets all the time. I’ve been wanting to try the slow cooker mixes, anyone tried one yet?

Ashlee

Courtney
Oh and I love the Monterey CHicken seasoning!
Ashlee
I haven’t tried that one!!! I’ll totally have to, do you like it for a specific dish? or every time you saute chicken for any recipe?
Yvonne
Ooh this recipe looks great! I love the cumin – we use it ALL the time!!
Ashlee
ohh I love cumin too! It’s one of the ones I keep in my easy to reach spice rack!
Amber @ Dessert Now, Dinner Later!
Your salmon looks like it was cooked perfectly! Love your little instagram video too 🙂
Ashlee
It’s taken a ton of practice learning how to not overcook my salmon! It’s so easy to over cook it and it’s so worth figuring it out!
Stacy Risenmay
This looks so incredible! My husband LOVES salmon.
Ashlee
I made it for the post, not thinking I’d love it as much as I did! I was really really good!
Ashley Addison
I absolutely love the McCormick Grill Mates Mesquite seasoning. My favorite.
Ashlee
ohhh I haven’t tried that one, I’m excited to try all these new spices people love!
Ashley Addison
I plan to try the Bag ‘n Season Honey Dijon Chicken very soon. Can’t wait!
Ashlee
that does sound good, My kids might even love that one, I enjoy cooking with dijon so I bet it tastes great!

oh yum I really need to get back on my fish eating!
Ashlee
Def, tastes great AND good for you! Mmmm
Jesseca
I wish I liked fish! This looks so delicious! We are big fans of garlic salt and powder. What a fun giveaway!
Ashlee
I bet there is a fish you’d like, it’s about finding the right on! I love trout and salmon and shrimp, but there are quite a few fish I don’t care for.
Shannah @ Just Us Four
This sounds delicious! I am totally in the minority but I am not a fan of salmon. So, I would be using a different type of fish for this. Great recipe though.
Ashlee
You’ll have to let me know what you think. I bet the McCormick site has some great suggestions for other types of fish. They have a few Suna and Tilapia recipes I want to try!
Summer
Oh we love salmon but I have never tried making it – your recipe makes it look so easy to make (and yummy!). My favorite McCormick seasoning is Salad Supreme
Ashlee
it is super easy to make! And so so good, I get mine at Costco usually, a bit cheaper and tasty. My Grandfather in law used to go to Alaska and bring home the best salmons, but now I have to make due with grocery store salmon.
aimee @ like mother like daughter
I love all of mccormick’s spices and use them for everything. I especially love their taco seasoning!
Ashlee
I like their taco too, chili and fajita as well!!!
aimee @ like mother like daughter
Who knew McCormick had so many delicious looking recipes on their site? Their smoky western spareribs look phenomenal and I can’t wait to try!
Susan Walls
My favorite spice is their Beef Stew spice mix and it’s just the season to stock up. My husband loves their rubs for his ribs and uses a variety. Also use McCormicks when making venison stew!
Ashlee
ohhh I agree I love their beef stew, I haven’t used their rubs before, I’ll have to try that out next time!
Shannon
I use their Garlic powder, Onion powder, chili powder, Italian seasoning, we also love the Grill mates. I am sure we use more, but those are the one’s left on my counter because they are used so often.
Carolsue
Their Mexican Spice is my favorite. I like to make Carnitas with it.
Melinda
My favorite McCormick spice is the Seasoning Salt with no msg. We use it on almost all our meats.
Melinda
I would like to try making the Spicy Chicken Quesadillas.
Tammilee Tillison
I love McCormick Garlic Powder
Tammilee Tillison
The lasagna looks amazing. They have so many fantastic recipes
WN
My favorite McCormick spice is Oregano leaves. I love using a good olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper as a dip for bread.
Tiffany
This was incredibly delicious. Thank you for sharing this easy salmon recipe. I had to fake my way through some of the seasonings (blend my own seasoned salt), but it still tasted fantastic. I can’t wait to make it again with the last salmon fillets I have leftover.
Ashlee
at the end of the day any seasoning you like will work for this, Dill is always a great one for salmon, but I have quite a few salmon recipes on the blog and whlie they are all different spices they all bake the same! glad your experimenting worked well
