For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the panko mixture. If you don't have lemon-pepper seasoning, you can substitute with black pepper and a little extra lemon zest. Feel free to use different herbs based on your preference. Rosemary or dill would also be delicious in this recipe. To prevent the salmon from drying out, you can tent the baking sheet with aluminum foil during the last 5-10 minutes of baking.
