5 Ingredient Salmon In A Mustard Honey Cream Sauce
This recipe is so very easy and quick. Perfect for a weeknight dinner but also great for a dinner party. A simple cream sauce made with heavy cream mustard and honey, a touch of dill and seasoned salmon. Now i prefer to cook this right under the broiler, but you can always use an indoor or outdoor grill, or even bake it. feel free to use what method you prefer. A foil lined baking sheet under the broiler is quick cooking and easy clean up. The sauce cooks in just a few minutes as the salmon cooks. Serve this with recipe #391590 and a side salad or your favorite green vegetable. I happen to love baby peas with this.
Steps
Salmon -- first thing is to remove the salmon from the refrigerator so it can come to room temperature , or take the chill off.
I leave the skin on mine , or you or your seafood counter guy can remove the skin if you want.
I place a piece of foil on a baking sheet and spray with a non stick spray or you can spray with olive oil too.
Place the fish on the foil and season well with salt and pepper.
Sauce -- as the salmon is coming to room temp , start the sauce.
In a small sauce pan on medium high heat , add the cream , honey , and mustard and whisk well to combine everything.
Bring it to a light boil and then reduce to medium low and simmer for approximately 7-10 minutes.
Make sure to stir the sauce as it comes to a light boil and once the heat is turned down , stir a couple more times.
The cream will naturally reduce and thicken.
Salmon -- as i mentioned , i like to broil this , but you can also bake the salmon or grill it.
Use what method you feel most comfortable with.
