Wash and dry 1 pound of fresh salmon, patting it dry with a paper towel.

Check for and remove any pin bones from the salmon by running your finger along it.

Place the salmon skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Drizzle the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the salmon for about 20 minutes or until cooked through.

In a large bowl, add 1/4 cup panko, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, and 1/4 cup Hellman's mayonnaise.

Add 1 tablespoon of chopped chives and 1 tablespoon of minced fresh dill to the bowl.

Mix in 1 teaspoon of Old Bay seasoning, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon of whole grain mustard.

Zest 1 lemon and add the zest to the bowl, avoiding the white part of the peel.

Mix all ingredients in the bowl before adding the cooked salmon to avoid breaking it up too much.

Flake the cooked salmon into the mixture and gently combine.

For the lemon dill sauce, combine 1/2 cup of full-fat plain Greek yogurt and 1/4 cup of mayonnaise in a bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice (from the zested lemon) to the sauce mixture.
