Cooking spray
1 pound salmon fillet
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup Dijon mustard*
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon mustard powder*
1 clove minced garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
*Instead of using dijon and mustard powder you can substitute a bold and spicy grainy mustard.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Season up both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper and then place in a baking dish that has been coated in cooking spray.
Once your fillet is seasoned up, you can go ahead and make the glaze. Combine your mustard, honey, mustard powder (if you are using it...and I recommend you do if you aren't using a mustard with bite), finely minced garlic and the juice of a lemon. Mix it all up good and then this is when I check to make sure the balance is good. Too lemony? More honey. Too sweet? More mustard. You get the picture. Then pour about half of the glaze on your salmon. Chop up some fresh dill and add it to your reserved sauce.
Then throw 'er in the oven and let it roast for about 15 minutes until the salmon is fork tender. Serve the extra honey/mustard/dill sauce on the side for dipping.
