This elegant, delicious, and Napa Valley-inspired dish takes only thirty minutes to prepare. It is nutrient-packed and utilizes fresh ingredients, so why not give it a try? The following recipe yields four servings.
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:
*Wash your hands before you begin.
1. Preheat the oven to 350℉ .
2. Combine honey, thyme, mustard, lemon zest, and pepper in a small bowl. Arrange salmon, with skin side down, in a shallow roasting pan lined with cooking foil. Spread the honey mixture to coat the top of each fillet using the back side of a spoon.
3. Bake, uncovered, for twenty minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145℉.
Cooking Notes:
- When prepping leftovers for an easy lunch or dinner to enjoy the following day, slice leftover salmon and place on top of a bed of mixed greens and chopped tomatoes.
- This dish is versatile! Instead of using thyme, you can substitute your favorite dried or fresh herb. Several herbs can be combined as well.
- To store fresh fish safely for one to two days after purchase, rinse and place it in a bag with ice. Pour off melted ice, and replace it with more ice chunks as needed.
- One reason why this meal is beneficial for your health is because of the presence of omega-3 fatty acids. The white droplets accumulating on the top of the salmon as well as the gray-colored meat right next to the skin are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
