Welcome back to Episode 4 of 20 Minute High Protein Trader Joe’s Dinners! Tonight we’re making Sheet Pan Panko Salmon & Crispy Broccoli which is my favorite quick and easy dinner when I’m craving something healthy and delicious. I served it up with the microwaveable brown rice from Trader Joe’s and it was perfection! Each serving has 40 grams of protein (with 6 oz of salmon). IB: Queen @inagarten 👑

Sheet Pan Panko Salmon & Crispy Broccoli

Ingredients

Panko Salmon:

1-1 1/2 lb salmon filet
2 tbsp dijon mustard
Juice from 1/2 lemon
2 tsp coconut sugar
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
3 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese omit for dairy free
Brown rice to serve

Crispy Broccoli:

12 oz broccoli florets
1 tbsp olive oil
Juice from 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard and lemon juice. In another small bowl, mix the coconut sugar, paprika, kosher salt, garlic powder, pepper and oregano. In a medium bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, parsley, olive oil and parmesan cheese.
Place the salmon on one side a large sheet pan and coat with the Dijon mustard mixture. Sprinkle the seasoning on top in an even layer, then add the panko mixture. Press gently into the salmon.
On the other side, add the broccoli florets. Toss in the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork. Serve with brown rice.

Recipe Notes
