Orange Dijon Glazed Salmon

 Credit for this dish goes to my friend Debbie Marcum.

The flavor profile of Dijon, honey and soy sauce is always exciting. Combined with salmon it becomes a delectable treat! Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 4  six oz salmon fillets
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic - minced
  • 1 tsp orange zest

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the salmon fillets on the baking sheet and season with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, Dijon mustard, honey, soy sauce, and garlic.

Spoon the glaze generously over each salmon fillet, reserving a little for later.

Bake for 9-10 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Brush the reserved glaze over the salmon during the last 2 minutes of baking.

Sprinkle with orange zest and serve warm.

Blessed be… and happy cooking!
