salmon recipes?

Ordered salmon last week at a restaurant while on vacation that had a nutty/bread crumb crust - been craving it ever since. Anybody have any recipes that sound similar? Any other salmon recipes are welcome too, always looking for new way to cook it.

Here are some ideas:
Broiled Salmon with Creamy Lemon Sauce

Salmon Patties with Curry Sauce are a favorite:

These work great!
##################
Four 6-ounce skinned salmon fillets
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon minced orange zest
2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
1. Season the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Grind the fennel seeds coarsely in a coffee or spice grinder, and mix them with the rosemary and orange zest. Press this mixture into the top (nonskin side) of each fillet. Let sit, refrigerated and covered, for up to 24 hours.
2. When you're ready to cook, preheat the oven to 450°F. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 3 or 4 minutes. Add the oil or butter and, when it shimmers, place the fillets, coated side down, in the pan. Cook about 1 minute, or until the spice mixture forms a nicely browned crust.
3. Turn the fillets and cook about a minute more, then transfer to the oven. Cook about 4 minutes for rare salmon, 5 to 6 minutes for medium-rare, and 8 minutes for well done.
With MINIMAL Effort:
Seed-Rubbed Salmon: Combine 2 tablespoons raw, shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas) and 2 tablespoons (roughly) dried porcini pieces in a coffee or spice grinder and grind to a coarse powder. Press some of the mixtue into the top (nonskin side) of each of the fillets and cook as above.
Spice-Rubbed Salmon. Combine 1 tablespoon coriander seeds or ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon whole or ground cloves, 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds or ground cumin, and 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg. Press some of the mixture into the top (nonskin) side of each of the fillets and cook as above.
This technique will work with nearly any spice, herb, or other rub you can think of. Try curry powder; minced lemon zest and parsley; minced lime zest and cilantro; or ground nuts and shallots.
Substitute whole or clarified butter, peanut oil, or a neutral oil such as grapeseed or canola for the olive oil.
I made blackened salmon last week, and my husband said it's the best tasting meal I've ever cooked...and very simple!
4 boneless/skinless salmon fillets
1/2 cup of butter substitute spread (Olivio, Smart Balance)- melted
Creole seasoning blend
Use about half (1/4 cup) of the melted spread and brush on both sides of the fillets.
Use half of the remaining spread (1/8 cup) and spread on one side of each piece, then sprinkle seasoning on just that one side. Place the seasoned side down in a hot grill pan, cook until blackened about 3-5 minutes.
Spread the remaining butter on the uncooked sides & sprinkle with seasoning, then flip and cook for 3-5 minutes, until the fish flakes.
It's very yummy with nice green salad!!!
I like my salmon pan fried with Old Bay seasoning.
No need to add any oil, the salmon releases plenty as you fry it.
