Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure the oven is ready to perfectly bake the salmon.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, mustard, and grated ginger. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully integrated.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Using a brush or spoon, evenly coat the top of each salmon fillet with the ginger-mustard honey glaze. Make sure each fillet has a generous layer of the glaze for maximum flavor.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through. The flesh should flake easily with a fork and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Once done, remove the salmon from the oven. Let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving. You can garnish it with some freshly chopped herbs like parsley or cilantro for added color and freshness if desired.
Serve your Ginger-Mustard Honey Glazed Salmon with your favorite sides such as steamed vegetables, a simple green salad, or a serving of quinoa or rice.
Tips:
- Use fresh salmon fillets for the best flavor and texture. Make sure the fillets are of similar thickness to ensure even cooking.
- Preheat your oven to ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and achieves a perfect glaze.
- Be cautious with the amount of ginger used. Fresh ginger can have a strong flavor, so adjust according to your taste preference.
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the salmon in the glaze for 15-30 minutes before cooking.
- Serve your glazed salmon with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
