Ingredients
Scale
- 2 Salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Rub them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar to create the glaze.
- Spoon or brush the glaze evenly over the top of each salmon fillet.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time depends on the thickness of your fillets.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your easy, tasty meal!
Notes
- For thicker fillets, you may need an extra 2-3 minutes of baking time. Check for doneness around the 12-minute mark.
- You can substitute regular yellow mustard for Dijon if you prefer a milder flavor, but Dijon adds a nice tang.
- This pairs well with a simple side salad or roasted asparagus.
