- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup melted butter

- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup chicken broth

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup chopped parsley, 2 tablespoons chopped dill, 2 tablespoons chopped chives, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, melted butter, salt, and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Press the herb mixture onto the top of each fillet to form a crust.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

- Stir in the chicken broth, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
