Ingredients

• 4 pieces salmon fillets
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 piece garlic clove, minced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This will serve as your sweet mustard glaze.

Step 3

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Brush the top and sides of each salmon fillet generously with the mustard glaze, making sure to evenly coat each piece.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 6

Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a minute or two.

Step 7

Garnish the salmon with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a crisp green salad.
