BROILED SALMON STEAKS 
3 salmon steaks (about 1/2 lb each)
lemon juice
Ritz crackers, crumbled
garlic and onion powder
3 pats butter (1 tablespoon each)
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced

Spray a shallow sided aluminum baking pan with olive oil spray. Place fish steaks on pan. Sprinkle evenly with garlic and onion powder and a pinch each of salt and pepper.

In a microwaveable dish, melt butter; toss crushed crackers in butter. Sprinkle the cracker mixture evenly over the top of the fish. Sprinkle with minced parsley.

Broil (on the top rack), without turning, until the edges of the fish are browned and the flesh is a whitish pink (no longer clear) and it starts to look flaky when touched with a fork. This will take about 10-15 minutes, depending on your oven (or grill) and the size of the fish steak.

Squeeze lemon juice over top before serving garnished with a sprig of fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

A grill may be used instead of a broiler. Heat grill to at least 400°F on a gas grill, or if using briquettes, coals should be white hot.

Amazing and so easy!! love salmon already, the kids and hubby..not so much BUT, after this recipe, I believe they all changed their mind! so yummy
I also broiled mine at 500°F for 15 mins was ok, placed mine a few racks down though half way through cooking because at first it did brown quickly with the cracker-butter. will make again :)

Very good. The thing about Ritz crackers is that they work fine without mixing them with melted butter. Try it.

My husband and I love fish. This was a great change from our usual perch. But I only had it in the oven for about 5 minutes and my smoke alarms started going off. I think it was the olive oil spray that was doing all the smoking. I may have sprayed too much. But loved the taste of the salmon. I will definitely make it again.

This is one of my favourite dishes. I made it for a party and the appreciation I received for this was tremendous. I think among all sea foods fish recipes are liked the most.

Great recipe! But I have a question. It's called baked salmon steaks, why? The directions call for broiling the steaks not bake. I see this a lot in baked fish recipes.

 Irv (United States) says:
Taste was great. Preparation was easy. Would have rated 5, but mine also caught on fire. Crackers burned to a char. For me that was OK - It was just a blackened salmon dish. A little lemon juice squirted on top and all was fine.
Definitely cook on a lower shelf.

Great, easy and delicious. Didn't have Ritz so I used vegetable crackers. Turned out great broiled on second rack in gas oven.

 Ian Whitefield (Pennsylvania) says:
I followed the recipe and broiled the salmon for ten minutes. When I checked it the salmon was perfect but the garlic and the rest on top was burnt.

 Mark Willobee (Michigan) says:
I read some of the other reviews before I made mine. Baked mine in the oven for 15 minutes at 375°F and then I put it in the broiler for about 5 minutes until the crackers started to brown a little bit. My wife absolutely loved it!
