Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a shallow baking pan with cooking spray.
Pat salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Place salmon, skin side down, in pan; brush with 1 T. butter. Season with salt.
Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, onions, lemon zest and thyme in a small bowl. Stir in remaining 1 T. butter. Press breadcrumb mixture evenly on salmon.
Bake uncovered 15 - 25 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately, right out of the oven.

*Bread with a medium texture instead of a soft texture works best for this recipe so that the topping gets crunchy.
