• Top the salmon with mustard and panko: Using a small spoon, spread the mustard mixture on the salmon; top with the bread crumb mixture.
• Roast the salmon and serve: Roast the salmon for 12-14 minutes (test after 10 minutes), or until it is almost completely firm to the touch and flakes when poked with a fork. Serve at once.
