HONEY-MUSTARD ROASTED SALMON



Honey-Mustard Roasted Salmon image

Sweet honey and hot mustard are wonderfully balanced in this Dijon sauce that pairs nicely with salmon. Try the sauce over other types of fish as well as grilled or roasted chicken and pork. We used pink salmon fillets, also known as humpback salmon, in this recipe because they are less fatty than some other salmon varieties like coho and sockeye. You can substitute a different type of salmon, if you like, but it may impact nutrition values. If the fish flakes when pierced lightly with a fork in the thickest part of the fillet, that's your sign the salmon is done. You can use any leftover salmon or sauce to top a fresh salad.

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lb salmon fillet
Kosher salt
1/2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
Lime wedges to serve
Parsley garnish
4 tablespoons whole grain mustard
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ tsp cayenne (optional)
½ tsp black pepper

Steps:

  • To cook in the oven, heat the oven to 375 degrees F and position a rack in the middle. To grill, heat a gas grill to medium high (about 400 degrees F).
  • Pat the salmon fillet dry. Season with salt on both sides.
  • Prepare the honey mustard sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey mustard sauce ingredients (whole grain mustard, honey, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne and black pepper).
  • To Bake. Place the salmon on a lightly oiled sheet pan or baking dish (if using salmon with skin on, place the salmon skin side down in the dish). Spread the honey mustard sauce evenly over the surface of the salmon. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover and place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • To grill. Place the salmon (already seasoned with salt) on a large, lightly oiled piece of aluminum foil. Spread the honey mustard sauce on top of the salmon. Fold both sides of the foil over the salmon and tightly close it at the top. Place on a medium-high gas grill. Cover and let cook for about 10 to 12 minutes (grill time will vary depending on the thickness of your salmon, begin to check earlier in the process). Open the top of the foil up so the fish is exposed (lots of hot steam with be released, so be careful). Continue cooking about 3 minutes or so on the grill.
  • To serve. Remove from the heat. Squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
