Recipe Notes:
Pork Rind Substitution: There is not a viable substitution for pork rinds so, if you choose not to use them in this recipe, you can either replace them with grated parmesan at a 1:1 ratio, or you can altogether omit them. If you choose to omit them, note that the salmon will not be as crispy as the original recipe intends.
Storage: Store salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator and eat within 3-4 days.
Reheating Salmon After Refrigeration: Preheat oven to 275 degrees and line baking sheet with foil. Coat foil in nonstick cooking spray. Place salmon skin-side down on pan and bake until salmon reaches internal temperature of 120 degrees. The bake time may be upwards of 15 minutes (bake time is dependent on how cold the refrigerated fish was).
