Ingredients

  • 2 (6 to 8-ounce) salmon fillets

  • 2 squares parchment paper

  • 1/4 cup butter, divided

  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 2 tablespoons finely ground pecans

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

  • 1 teaspoon Greek seasoning, divided

  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil

  • 3 ounces portobello mushrooms, quartered

  • 6 ounces marinated quartered artichoke hearts, drained

  • 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper

  • 3/4 cup Pinot Grigio or other dry white wine

  • 2 ounces jarred roasted bell pepper, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Place each salmon fillet on a sheet of parchment.

  2. Melt 2 tablespoons butter and brush over salmon. Combine panko, pecans, garlic salt, and 1/2 teaspoon Greek seasoning in a small bowl and stir together. Evenly sprinkle over salmon fillets.

  3. Crimp and fold parchment around fillets to form a packet. Place packets on a rimmed baking tray.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, for sauce, heat grapeseed oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes. Stir in artichoke hearts, remaining 1/2 teaspoon Greek seasoning and pepper, and continue to cook and stir for about 6 minutes. Pour in white wine. Biring to a simmer and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.

  6. Add roasted bell pepper, and cook, stirring, until peppers are warmed through, about 1 minute. Stir in remaining butter to melt, about 1 minute more.

  7. Carefully peel back parchment from salmon and ladle sauce over the salmon.
