It doesn't get much easier--or more delicious--than this speedy recipe for roast salmon topped with a smoky maple-mustard sauce. The sweetness of the maple balances the tangy mustard; smoked paprika or ground chipotle adds another layer of flavor. Ask at the fish counter to have the salmon cut into four 4-ounce fillets with the skin removed. Serve with roasted green beans and whole-wheat couscous tossed with pecans and chives.


Ingredients

    • 3 tablespoons whole-grain or Dijon mustard

    • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

    • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika or ground chipotle pepper (see Notes)

    • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

    • ⅛ teaspoon salt

    • 4 4-ounce skinless center-cut wild-caught salmon fillets

Step by Step method

    1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with cooking spray.

    2. Combine mustard, maple syrup, paprika (or chipotle), pepper and salt in a small bowl. Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the mustard mixture evenly on the salmon. Roast until just cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes.
