This recipe came from a package of Trader Joe’s Silver Brite salmon. I tried it without thinking much of it. Just didn’t have any other ideas to cook it. It turned out so surprisingly delicious I grabbed my camera and decided it’s worth sharing. It was super easy too. I hate having to wait to eat so if I’m cooking after work, it must be fast and easy.
- 4 tablespoons or so of oil (olive, whatever you have)
- 2 tablespoons of whole grain Dijon mustard
- 1 lb salmon
- black pepper
- 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/8 cup water
Heat the oil in a pan. Add the mustard and stir it around for a few minutes to toast. Add the salmon and cook it about 5 minutes on each side. Crack some black pepper on each side as you cook it. Add honey just before taking the fish out of the pan.
For the sauce, deglaze the pan with the juice of 1 lemon and 1/8 cup of water. Stir up the yummy bits at the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer and reduce by about half. Pour it over the salmon.
It is very tasty!
