How long to bake salmon?

The thicker your salmon fillets, the longer they need to bake. Salmon shouldn’t need more than 15 minutes in the oven at 425ºF but 8 to 10 minutes is usually the sweet spot (depending if you like it more rare or well done). An instant read thermometer should read 145ºF in the thickest part of the salmon when it’s done.

Another easy way to tell that the salmon is done baking is to look at the flakiness. Use a fork to scrape the fillet - does it flake easily? If yes, then it’s ready to come out of the oven!

Tips and variations

You don’t have to make this recipe with potatoes or broccoli. Feel free to swap the veggies for anything you like, such as asparagus, sweet potatoes, broccolini, red potatoes, cauliflower, mushrooms, and more. Just adjust the baking time depending on what you use.
If you don’t have salmon, make this recipe with skinless boneless chicken breasts instead. You can still add the breadcrumb crust on top as well!
If you prefer a sweeter taste, replace the breadcrumb coating on the salmon with a honey glaze instead.
To make this recipe gluten free, omit the breadcrumbs or replace them with gluten free breadcrumbs instead.
Did you end up with leftovers? Cut up the salmon and layer it with the vegetables over a bed of couscous, quinoa, kale, or rice.
