Pine Nut Crusted Salmon

1 whole side of salmon filet
1 teaspoon old bay seasoning
2 cups pine nuts
1 cup bread crumbs
¼ cup of fresh flat leaf parsley
Sliced lemon for garnish

Place side of salmon on a non-stick baking sheet Season with old bay. Place pine nuts and parsley in the bowl of a food processor and grind to a coarse grind. Add breadcrumbs and mix.

Spread over the salmon covering it completely. Cover with foil and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes (depends on thickness of the salmon) or until the fish is flakey and opaque in color.

Remove foil for the last 10 minutes of baking (this will give the nuts a nice toasted color). Transfer to a large platter and serve at warm or room temperature. Garnish with lemon.

Optional: Make a fruit salsa by dicing seasonal fruit such as mango, peaches, kiwi, oranges, grapes and grape tomatoes. Drizzle with oil and fresh mint and surround the salmon with the salsa.
