Hi Friends! Happy Valentine’s Day! I just popped in to share a simple recipe I made last night for dinner. This is a DAK approved recipe!
When we got home from work yesterday, we had a driveway full of snow that needed to be shoveled. So as Dave got busy shoveling, I got busy cooking. I have made this salmon as the recipe suggests before, but this time I wanted to change things up and instead of Dijon mustard, I used a store bought prepared pesto sauce. Oh my, it was delicious!
I found this delicious salmon recipe on the website Allrecipes. I served the salmon with oven roasted asparagus and tomatoes- which were simply tossed with olive oil, and salt and pepper. I baked/oven roasted all items together. And there you have it- a one pan meal that was fast, healthy, and tasty!
Baked Dijon Salmon
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
- 4 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
- 4 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lemon, for garnish
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- In a small bowl, stir together butter, mustard, and honey. Set aside. In another bowl, mix together bread crumbs, pecans, and parsley.
- Brush each salmon fillet lightly with honey mustard mixture, and sprinkle the tops of the fillets with the bread crumb mixture.
- Bake salmon 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Season with salt and pepper, and garnish with a wedge of lemon.
