This is a wonderful way to prepare fresh salmon fillets in the oven. Baking the fish keeps the dish low in fat and healthy.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 C. butter, melted
  • 3 Tbs. Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 Tbs. honey
  • 1/4 C. dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 C. finely chopped pecans
  • 4 tsp. chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 4 oz. fillets salmon
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lemon, for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together butter, mustard, and honey. Set aside. In another bowl, mix together bread crumbs, pecans, and parsley. Brush each salmon fillet lightly with honey mustard mixture, and sprinkle the tops of the fillets with the bread crumb mixture. Bake salmon 12-15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Season with salt and pepper, and garnish with a wedge of lemon.
