From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Herb-crusted salmon

Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes

Makes 4 portions

4 x 150g skinless salmon fillets
25g unsalted butter, softened
​2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
​4 tbsp Japanese panko breadcrumbs
½ tsp grated lemon zest
Salt and black pepper

Preheat the oven to 180C/350C Fan /Gas 4 and line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.

Arrange the salmon fillets on the baking sheet and season. Mix the butter and dill together, then spread the herb butter over one side of each fillet. Press the breadcrumbs onto the butter, and sprinkle over the lemon zest.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked but still pink in the middle, and the crust is lightly golden and crisp.
