Choose the right salmon: For this recipe, it is best to use a salmon fillet that is about 1 inch thick. This will ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and does not overcook.

Make sure the sauce is thickened: The orange-dijon cream sauce should be thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon. If the sauce is too thin, add more cornstarch or flour.

Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the salmon is moist and flavorful.
