Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound salmon filet
  • 1/3 cup walnuts chopped, unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary finely chopped fresh
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic grated or minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • salt fresh ground, to taste
  • black pepper fresh ground, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray. Place the salmon fillet(s) onto the prepared baking sheet, skin side down.
  2. In a small bowl combine the dijon, maple syrup, rosemary, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper.
  3. Spread the mixture over the top of the salmon. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts evenly on top and gently press them down so they stick.
  4. Bake the salmon on the middle rack of the oven for 8-12 minutes or until the thickest part flakes easily with a fork. Serve with lemon wedges if desired.
