Simple Salmon Glaze

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This glaze is perfect when it’s 7pm, no meal plan and my fridge is out of fresh ingredients. I crack the freezer and grab a few frozen fillets, toss them in warm water and get started with prep. I then throw some frozen veggies and rice in my rice cooker and I have a healthy meal, quick as pizza delivery.

  1. If salmon is frozen, put it in some warm water to defrost it quickly. It's safe so long as it's small enough to defrost in less than 10 minutes.
glaze
  1. Mix equal parts mustard & honey in a bowl. Add a few cloves of chopped garlic. Add a few glugs of olive oil. Add a bit of balsamic vinegar, about 1/3 of olive oil used. Season with salt & pepper, and mix.
bake salmon
  1. Line baking pan in enough foil to wrap around fish. Lay salmon in the foil and cover in glaze. Wrap salmon and bake at 375 for ~20-25 minutes, you may need more or less time depending on thickness. It's done when it flakes with a fork.
