Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon or tuna steaks
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 1 as needed Cooking spray or oil for grill grates

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.

Step 2

Pat the salmon or tuna steaks dry with paper towels. Place them in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well-coated.

Step 3

Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse into the fish.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) and lightly grease the grates with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the fish from the marinade and let the excess marinade drip off. Reserve the marinade for brushing later.

Step 6

Place the salmon or tuna steaks on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, brushing occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork (internal temperature should reach 145°F for salmon).

Step 7

Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
