Ingredients:

• 2 Tbsp dijon mustard
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 4 (6-oz) salmon fillets
• 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill
• Garnish: lemon slices

Method

Whisk together first 5 ingredients in a small bowl. Place salmon on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Spread mustard mixture evenly over salmon. Bake at 425 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork. Sprinkle evenly with dill. Garnish with lemon slices if desired.

Notes: I make this recipe with thick-cut salmon fillets. Lower your cooking time if using thinner, wider fillets. Frozen salmon fillets work fine, too.

Number of servings: 4
