Honey Mustard Salmon
Description
The recipe begins by mixing two kinds of mustard with honey, soy sauce, and onion powder to form a robust honey mustard sauce. Broccoli florets are briefly sautéed with olive oil and a splash of water until tender yet crisp. The salmon fillets are seasoned generously, pan-seared on medium-high heat for about five minutes per side, then brushed with the honey mustard sauce and cooked briefly more to set the glaze. Returning the broccoli to the pan finishes the dish with combined flavors.
The honey mustard mixture offers a mix of sharp and sweet flavors that complement the natural richness and texture of the salmon. The broccoli provides a fresh, slightly crunchy contrast. Serving with lemon wedges and chopped parsley (optional) adds brightness and herbaceous notes. This recipe fits as a straightforward protein and vegetable dish for dinner or lunch.
