Instructions
Creating Baked Dijon Salmon is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
3. Arrange the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Coat the Salmon: Spread an even layer of the Dijon mixture over each salmon fillet, ensuring they are well coated.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center.
6. Garnish: Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle with fresh dill or parsley for added flavor and presentation.
7. Serve: Serve the salmon with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
