Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a shallow baking pan with cooking spray.

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.

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