Ingredients
- 2 pounds side of salmon fillet, boneless and skinless
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, mustard, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the salmon fillet in the middle of the foil-lined sheet.
- Use a basting brush to coat the salmon with the honey mustard mixture. Set aside and allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
- While the fish is marinating, preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve warm, topped with parsley if using.
Notes
- Baking times will vary depending on the thickness of your salmon filet, so I recommend checking it a few minutes early if you have a thinner cut of salmon.
- I highly recommend using sustainably-harvested, wild-caught Alaskan salmon from ButcherBox for this recipe.
- This recipe is best enjoyed the day that it is made, as salmon can dry out when reheated. Store leftover salmon in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days.
