Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Salmon fillets (skin-on)
- 3 tablespoons Creole mustard
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Green onions (chopped, for garnish)
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together Creole mustard, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 2
Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towels. Place them skin-side down on a plate or sheet pan.
Step 3
Brush the glaze generously over the salmon fillets, ensuring an even coating. Let the salmon marinate for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill.
Step 4
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down directly on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the remaining glaze, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 6
Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Step 7
Enjoy your Grilled Creole Mustard Ginger Glazed Salmon with your favorite sides!
