To prepare crispy salmon on flatbreads, first take care of the bread by cutting the slices into small cubes 1. Put the reduced bread in a blender 2, then add the chopped parsley 3
add the zest of half a lemon 4 and add the mint leaves 5, thyme 6,
and marjoram leaves 7 to the blender. Then adjust with salt and pepper 8 and also add the two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil 9.
Coarsely chop the mixture 10, not too finely, and transfer it to a bowl. At this point, take care of the salmon, pat the fillets dry, and cut 12 slices the same size as the flatbreads on which they will be placed 11. Coat the salmon fillets in the breadcrumb mixture 12, making sure it adheres well on all sides.
Place the breaded salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper 13. Bake at 375°F for ten minutes in a preheated static oven (in a convection oven at 320°F for 10 minutes). Once the salmon is cooked and golden brown 14, remove it from the oven, let it cool slightly, and then place each fillet on a flatbread 15 and arrange a few herb leaves on each fillet. Serve your crispy salmon on flatbreads!
