I made this because I love salmon, crunch, and anything that lets me pretend I’m fancy while using a spice jar that’s been in my pantry since 2017. This is everything-bagel-seasoning-crusted salmon—fast, flaky, a little crunchy, and perfect for nights when you want dinner to look like effort without actually doing much. Yes, this pan is too small. No, I won’t wash fewer dishes. Try it because it’s ridiculously easy, impresses people who assume you slaved for hours, and tastes like you meant to be this clever all along.

My husband once tried to “help” by flambéing the butter (he thought he was Gordon Ramsay; he is not). He managed to set off the smoke alarm, coat the kitchen in a very dramatic smoky-scented film, and then trumpet that he’d “added depth.” My kids chewed the entire jar of everything seasoning like it was a new kind of potato chip. I learned three things that night: 1) the salmon still tasted great, 2) the kids will eat anything if you call it a “special sprinkle,” and 3) marriage is stronger if you don’t mention the smoke alarm in the first sentence after dinner.

Why You’ll Love This Easy Everything Bagel Salmon Recipes

– It’s fast: get dinner on the table before your brain remembers you forgot to defrost anything.
– It’s crunchy and flaky—a texture party that doesn’t require a DJ.
– Minimal ingredients, maximum smugness: everything seasoning does the heavy lifting.
– Kid-approved-ish: if they love bagels, they’ll tolerate fish. Bribery with extra seasoning usually works.

Time-Saving Hacks

– Use pre-mixed everything bagel seasoning. Yes, it’s the point. Don’t feel guilty.
– Bake on a rimmed sheet instead of using a pan and foil—less scrubbing, more smugness.
– If you’re really in a rush, broil for the last 2 minutes for instant crust. Watch it like a hawk unless you want charcoal couture.
– Reuse one bowl for the marinade and the topping—rinse between if you’re dramatic about cross-contamination. I’m not.

Serving Ideas

– Serve over quick-cook rice or quinoa. Because carbs = happiness, science says so.
– Make a salad with crisp greens, cucumber, and a lemony vinaigrette—pretend you’re healthy.
– Slap it on a toasted bagel with cream cheese for the ultimate breakfast-for-dinner move. Yes, I’ve done it. No regrets.
– Serve with wine if the kids drove you nuts today. Or sparkling water and a long sigh if you’re driving.

What to Serve It With

Tips & Mistakes

– Don’t overcrowd the pan. Fish are social but not that social. Overcrowding = steaming, not searing.
– Pat the salmon dry. I learned this the hard way when I tried to fry soggy fish and achieved soggy sweater vibes.
– If you’re using skin-on, start skin-side down for extra crisp. Flip once, like it’s an important punctuation mark.
– Don’t salt the fillets too early if your seasoning already has salt. Taste the seasoning first—your future self will thank you.

Storage Tips

Store it in the fridge… if there’s any left. Cold midnight leftovers? Sometimes better than fresh.
– Keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a low oven or eat cold on a salad—both are valid life choices.
– Freeze cooked portions wrapped tightly for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge and revive in a 300°F oven for 10–15 minutes.

Variations and Substitutions

Swap whatever you want—sugar ↔ honey, soy sauce ↔ tamari, or skip steps and call it “deconstructed.” It still counts.
– Try adding lemon zest to the seasoning for brightness.
– For a spicy kick, mix in some chili flakes or a drizzle of sriracha.
– Want a crunchier crust? Lightly press panko into the seasoning before cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions

I can’t have gluten… will this still work?
Yep. Use tamari or coconut aminos. You’ll survive and still brag about it online.
Do I have to peel the pineapple first?
Unless you enjoy chewing bark… yes, peel it. Your teeth will thank you.
Can I use canned pineapple instead of fresh?
Sure. Just drain it well or enjoy syrup soup. Still tasty, though.
How sweet is this? Can I tone it down?
Absolutely. Cut the sugar—or don’t, and embrace the sugar rush.
What if I skip the sesame oil?
Then you’ll miss the nutty vibe, but relax—it’s still food. You’ll live.
