Good, Solid Recipe

Butter-sautéed spinach seasoned simply with garlic, salt, and pepper makes a nice side dish for this fish entrée, but any wilted greens will do.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 fillet)

Ingredients

  • 2  teaspoons  whole-grain mustard
  • 1  teaspoon  honey
  • 1/4  teaspoon  ground turmeric
  • 1/4  teaspoon  ground red pepper
  • 1/8  teaspoon  garlic powder
  • 1/4  teaspoon  salt
  • 4  (6-ounce) salmon fillets
  • Cooking spray

Preparation

Preheat broiler.

Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl, stirring well with a fork. Rub mustard mixture evenly over each fillet. Place fillets, skin side down, on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

I love this recipe! I've made it about four times now and it doesn't get old. My friends love, my family loves it -- my 10 year old little sister went crazy over this recipe and she's the pickiest eater I've ever met. Even if you don't like fish, you have to try this!07/04/09

Our family really loves this recipe. It's a regular at our house - quick and easy. The whole grain mustard is good, but I think the recipe would also do well with ground mustard - prepared mustard you might need to reduce the amount a bit, but I have not tried that. (My daughter doesn't care for salmon too much, but actually enjoyed it with this topping!)06/20/09
