DIRECTIONS
  1. In large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard and lemon zest.  Sprinkle salmon fillets with salt and pepper.  Pour potato flakes onto a large plate.
  2. Working with one fillet at a time, coat salmon with mayonnaise mixture and then with potato flakes, turning to coat both sides of fillets.  Place each coated fillet on a clean plate and repeat with remaining fillets.
  3. In large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil.  Add the salmon, rounded side down, and cook until golden, about 5 minutes.  Carefully turn fillets over and cook until golden and fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes longer.  Transfer salmon to serving plates and serve with lemon wedges.
