1 package (2-ounces) slivered almonds
1/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1-1/4 pounds Copper River fresh salmon
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Combine almonds, breadcrumbs, black pepper, red pepper flakes and olive oil in a food processor. Pulse until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
On a greased baking sheet, place salmon skin-side down.
Pressing gently, cover the top of salmon with almond mixture.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
