Cracker Crusted Salmon with Dill Pickle Aioli

This is a 15 minute meal that is pretty enough for entertaining. I’ve always been a fan of anything pickled, and this pickle aioli is one of my favorite sauces yet. It adds a perfect punch of flavor on top of the crispy, buttery salmon. Serve this with salad, baked fries or mashed potatoes.

1. Preheat oven to 425. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place milk and beaten eggs in a bowl. Place crushed crackers on a plate. Soak each salmon filet in the milk/egg mixture, then coat with cracker crumbs. Place on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with melted butter. Roast for 10 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

3. Meanwhile, combine the aioli ingredients in a small bowl.

4. Transfer salmon to serving plates and top with aioli.
