Ingredients
- 50 g white bread
- A few fresh chives, chopped
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 4 salmon fillets
- 100 g garlic and herb
- Cream cheese
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180 ºC, 350 ºF, Gas 4.
2. Place the bread in a food processor and blend into fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the chives and lemon zest.
3. Spread the salmon fillets with a thick layer of cream cheese and place on a lightly oiled baking tray.
4. Top with the flavoured breadcrumbs, lightly pressing them into the cream cheese.
5. Roast in the oven for 15 – 20 minutes or until cooked.

[Tip - If the fish is a little damp, pat it dry with kitchen paper so that the cream cheese is easier to spread without sliding off.]
