Sounds Good #3:Buffalo Salmon

I love hot wings and I love Salmon (cooked medium). What could be better? Buffalo Salmon, why not?

Today's recipe comes from the May 2008 of Gourmet Magazine, page 144. 

Buffalo Salmon:

Serves 6 takes about 30 minutes

5 Tablespoons unsalted butter

1/4 Cup hot sauce such as Frank's Redhot

1/3 Cup Panko bread crumbs

1 Tablespoon vegetable oil

2# piece salmon fillet with skin on

Preheat oven  to 425F with rack in upper 3rd. Lightly oil a shallow baking pan. Melt butter with hot sauce and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper over medium heat. Set aside 1/4 cup sauce. Toss panko with oil in a bowl. Put salmon skin side down in baking pan and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, then brush with remaining sauce. Sprinkle panko evenly over top of fish, then bake until panko is golden and fish is just cooked through, 16 to 22 minutes. Serve skin side down. 

Wow, think I'm going to have it tonight with some sauteed veggies!
