Ingredients:

1 spray(s) cooking spray

1 1/2 pound(s) uncooked wild pink salmon fillet(s), four 6-oz pieces, about 1-inch-thick each*

1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste

1/8 tsp black pepper, coarsely ground, or to taste

1/4 cup(s) Dijon mustard

2 Tbsp honey

1 Tbsp water

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a shallow baking dish with cooking spray.

Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper; place salmon in prepared baking dish.

In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, water, vinegar, dry mustard and garlic powder. Remove 2 tablespoons of mustard sauce and brush over salmon fillets. Stir dill into remaining mustard sauce and set aside.

Roast until salmon is fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Serve salmon with reserved mustard sauce spooned over top. Yields about 4 to 5 ounces of salmon and 1 1/2 tablespoons of sauce per serving.
