Tips:

Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh and has a firm texture.
Cook the salmon gently: Overcooking will dry out the salmon, so cook it over medium heat until it is just cooked through.
Make sure the Dijon vinaigrette is well-balanced: The vinaigrette should be tangy, but not overpowering. Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard and vinegar to taste.
Serve the salmon with a variety of vegetables: Roasted vegetables, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad are all great options.
