Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup mustard powder, preferably Colman's
1/2 cup sugar
2 pounds center-cut salmon fillet, about 2 inches thick at its thickest, with skin
2 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 250 degrees. In a small bowl whisk mustard, sugar and 1/2 cup water together. Set aside.
  • Cut salmon into four uniform portions. Pat dry with paper towel. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a heavy ovenproof skillet over high heat; skillet should be large enough to hold salmon without crowding. Add salmon skin side up, and sear quickly about 2 minutes, until it can be lifted easily with a spatula without sticking. Turn, and sear about 2 minutes skin side down. Thickest part should still be raw in center.
  • Brush top of salmon with remaining olive oil and then with mustard mixture. Place in oven about 20 minutes, until medium-rare in center. (An instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part should register 100 to 110 degrees.) Remove from oven, and serve.
