Glazed Salmon Recipe

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1¼ pounds salmon, cut into 4 pieces
Directions
Before you begin: Wash your hands.
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine the honey, thyme, mustard, lemon zest and pepper in a small bowl. Arrange the salmon, with the skin side down, in a shallow roasting pan lined with cooking foil. Using the back of a spoon, spread the honey mixture to coat the top of each fillet.
  3. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and flesh is opaque and flakes with a fork.
Cooking Notes
  • Extra Serving Suggestion: The leftover salmon can be placed on top of a bed of mixed greens with chopped tomatoes. 
  • Variation: Substitute thyme for another herb— or combine several.
  • Tip: To store fresh fish after purchase, rinse, and place it in a bag with ice. When the ice melts, pour the melted ice and replace with new ice.
  • Nutrition Nugget: The white droplets accumulating on the top of salmon are rich in omega-3s, along with the gray-colored meat right next to the skin.
