Steps:
- To cook in the oven, heat the oven to 375 degrees F and position a rack in the middle. To grill, heat a gas grill to medium high (about 400 degrees F).
- Pat the salmon fillet dry. Season with salt on both sides.
- Prepare the honey mustard sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey mustard sauce ingredients (whole grain mustard, honey, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne and black pepper).
- To Bake. Place the salmon on a lightly oiled sheet pan or baking dish (if using salmon with skin on, place the salmon skin side down in the dish). Spread the honey mustard sauce evenly over the surface of the salmon. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover and place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.
- To grill. Place the salmon (already seasoned with salt) on a large, lightly oiled piece of aluminum foil. Spread the honey mustard sauce on top of the salmon. Fold both sides of the foil over the salmon and tightly close it at the top. Place on a medium-high gas grill. Cover and let cook for about 10 to 12 minutes (grill time will vary depending on the thickness of your salmon, begin to check earlier in the process). Open the top of the foil up so the fish is exposed (lots of hot steam with be released, so be careful). Continue cooking about 3 minutes or so on the grill.
- To serve. Remove from the heat. Squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!

Categories Mustard Quick & Easy Salmon Summer Grill/Barbecue
Yield Serves 4; can be doubled for 6 to 8
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Vinaigrette:
- Whisk the vinegar, mustard, and shallot together in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the honey, then the oil, until the dressing is emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (The vinaigrette can be made a few hours in advance, covered, and kept refrigerated. Bring to room temperature and whisk or shake well before serving.)
- Salmon:
- 1. Heat your grill to high.
- 2. Brush the fish on both sides with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon skin side down until the skin is lightly charred and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the fillets over, reduce the heat to medium or move to a cooler part of the grill, and cook until just cooked through but not falling apart, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- 3. Remove the fish to serving plates or a platter and spoon a few tablespoons of vinaigrette over each fillet. Serve immediately.
GRILLED SALMON FILLET WITH HONEY-MUSTARD SAUCE
Steps:
- Whisk together the mustards, honey, horseradish, mint and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper in a small bowl. Let sit for at least 15 minutes before using. Can be made 1 day in advance and refrigerated but do not add the mint until just before using. Bring to room temperature before using.
- Heat the grill to high.
- Brush the salmon with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on the grill, skin side down, and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, about 3 minutes.
- While the salmon is cooking, place the watercress and onion in a medium bowl, add the vinegar and oil and salt and pepper and toss to combine. Transfer the salad to a platter, top with the salmon fillet and drizzle each fillet with the mustard sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a vibrant orange-pink color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have white streaks, as these will be less flavorful and may overcook easily.
- Season the salmon well: Before grilling, season the salmon with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Grill the salmon over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the salmon for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
- Make sure the vinaigrette is well emulsified: This means that the oil and vinegar are evenly combined and not separating. To achieve this, whisk the vinaigrette vigorously before using.
- Serve the salmon immediately with the vinaigrette: The vinaigrette will add a bright and flavorful touch to the salmon.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon is a delicious and healthy meal that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can ensure that your grilled salmon is cooked perfectly and is bursting with flavor. The mustard-herb vinaigrette is a great complement to the salmon, adding a tangy and herbaceous flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
