Salmon fillet in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   To prepare a dish, take the products from the list. It is better to take fresh fish, but frozen is also suitable. In this case, defrost the salmon on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Do not defrost until the end, so it will be easier to clean and cut into fillets.

2. Step 2:

   

   If you have a whole fish, clean the scales, remove the fins and head, gut. Cut the carcass along the spine to the spine. Turn it on its side. With a sharp knife, cut the meat from the backbone bone. Turn the carcass to the other side and cut the fillet from the other side. Remove the skin from the fillet with a knife. Rinse under running water and pat dry with paper towels.

3. Step 3:

   

   Prepare honey mustard sauce. In a container, mix the ingredients: mustard (it is better to take Dijon, not spicy), honey, lemon juice, finely chopped green onions, season the sauce with garlic passed through a press and salt to taste. Mix everything well until smooth.

4. Step 4:

   

   Cut the salmon fillet into medium-sized portions.

6. Step 5:

   

   Cover the heat-resistant mold with oiled parchment paper. Lay out the fish slices.

7. Step 6:

   

   Using a cooking silicone brush, brush the salmon fillet well with the prepared sauce on top.

8. Step 7:

   

   Preheat the oven to 200 degrees in advance (10-20 minutes before cooking). Bake the fish for about 10-12 minutes, the fish will be enough, the main thing is not to over–dry it.

9. Step 8:

   

   Arrange the finished fillet on plates and pour the same sauce over it before serving. The dish is quite self-sufficient, but you can prepare a side dish of boiled rice or potatoes. Additionally, you can serve sliced lemon. Lemon juice will dampen the sweetness of the sauce. Serve the dish immediately hot, it is very tasty chilled, infused in the same sauce. Enjoy your meal!
