Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit).
- Line a baking tray with kitchen foil and arrange the salmon fillets onto it.
- To make the sauce, mix the honey and mustards into a ramekin until you get a paste.
- Top each fillet with the paste, and season with salt, pepper and paprika.
- Bake for 20 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.

Notes
- Pat dry the salmon fillets with kitchen paper so the honey mustard sauce can stick better to them and not end up onto the tray.
- It is crucial to thaw the salmon fillets first if you use frozen fish, otherwise they will be too watery while baking and the sauce will become too runny and make a real mess. Plus, that will also mess with the baking time.
- There is no need to cover the salmon with foil while baking, I find that they cook well without too, plus the sauce tends to stick way better as well.
- The baking time will depend on the thickness of the salmon fillets, thicker ones will more likely take longer in the oven, so just keep an eye on them.
