I’m on a fish recipe kick lately. I love how I feel after eating fish at dinner (full but not too stuffed), how satisfied I am after dinner and how I feel the next morning.
We try to eat fish at least once a week because it contains so many good things for our body in terms of vitamins, minerals and protein.
I know a lot of people are iffy about any type of fish but I swear if you get a fresh piece of seafood it doesn’t smell or taste fishy. It can be savory, sweet and pairs well with so many things!
This simple salmon recipe was so delicious and flavorful! It cooks up fast and the prep time for it was even faster – maybe 5 minutes.
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
- 2 Salmon fillets
- 2 Tbsp. of olive oil
- 4 Tbsp. of your favorite, plain hummus
- 1 cup of pita chips
- 1 Tbsp. of fresh, chopped parsley
- 1 Tbsp. of fresh, chopped thyme
- 1 Tbsp. of fresh, chopped chives
Steps:
- Heat oven to 415 degrees.
- Crush pita chips in a plastic bag. Add them to a bowl and add all your herbs with 1 Tbsp. of olive oil. Mix thoroughly.
- Add your salmon to a baking sheet and brush with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
- Spread a thick layer of hummus over each piece of fish.
- Top heavily with crushed pita chip mixture.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness of your salmon. If it’s a really thick patty then you might need to add time. Fish should flake off easily with a fork when done.
That’s it! Serve it up with some greens with a little vinegar and oil and some couscous. It makes a perfect meal!
That is such an interesting combination. I will have to try it some time.
Hmm, this looks like an interesting combo. I’ll ask the kids what they think before I try it. I don’t like salmon too much myself.
It looks really delicious, I like salmon and this combination with humus would be really interesting to taste. I need to try to make it myself.
What a unique recipe! I bet it is just delicious and so light!
Salmon is our default fish choice! So we’re always looking for new ways to cook it. This looks so delicious. Love how you added pita chips!
This is such a unique dish. I would have never thought to use hummus with salmon. I’m always looking for new ways to prepare salmon so i will certainly be giving this a try.
Oh my gosh, this looks delicious! I never thought of having hummus with fish. I plan to make hummus later this week, I’ll have to try it like this.
Ah man I just made salmon tonight and I wish I had seen this first! It’s okay I have more salmon in the freezer. Totally making this it sounds perfect and I get so tried of just regular salmon.
Oh my gosh this salmon looks amazing! I love the pita hummus crust! What a great recipe!

This looks like something that I would love. Salmon is probably one of my all-time favorites.
This sounds so yummy. I love fresh salmon though I typically buy sushi grade only.
Looks like a delicious recipe. I’m sure glad it’s quick. Good fish can be hard to cook sometimes.
OMG I need to make this right now! It combines two of my favorite things: salmon and hummus with pita. Awesome idea!
This looks great and very healthy! Salmon is my absolute favorite – i’ll have to give this one a try.

I love eating fish for dinner too. Not too filling and I have so much energy! I’ll have to try this recipe.
This is definitely an awesome combo – we love hummus and we also love salmon. The two together has got to be great!
That salmon really look amazing. I would love the crust on it. Looks fresh and delicious. And hummus with it? Mmmmm…
What a creative recipe. We eat salmon, pitas and hummus in our home so this would be a perfect combination of favorite meal ingredients we already love. I bet my daughters would really enjoy this meal.
Salmon is one of my all-time favorites. Will be trying this is in the very near future.
Oh wow I love salmon and this looks like a great recipe!! My hubs and kids wont eat salmon, but I’m going to try this for myself!!
