marinade
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 0.5 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Steps

    In a bowl, mix together mustard, fresh garlic, lemon juice, paprika, dried parsley, chili flakes, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.
    ~3 min
  2. 2
    Place the salmon on a baking tray and brush the marinade generously on top.
    Tip: Let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors if you have time.
