A couple of months ago I went over to a friend's house with mr. to eat a salmon dinner. Our friend made us a cranberry mustard salmon and it was absolutely delicious. I looked at her recipe she had and then found it online a month later.
I highly recommend this recipe, and it's a great way to use some cranberry relish/sauce leftover from the holidays. Ingredients:
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
3 tablespoons olive oil (or walnut oil)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 Eight oz Salmon fillets (or 4 smaller fillets) with skin
1/3 Cup cranberry relish (if you don't have leftovers from the holidays buy the canned stuff,but make sure it is whole berry. I used this kind.)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 450F. Spray baking sheet (or whatever you're using to cook salmon on) with the spray oil. Use a cup and whisk together the oil and mustard.
Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper and place on the baking sheet. Spread the mustard mixture over the salmon, and pop in the oven for about 13 minutes depending on thickness and size of your fillet.
Whisk cranberry, red wine, and shallots together and turn the oven up to broil during the last 30 seconds on the salmon's bake. Take out the salmon and generously spread the cranberry mixture over the top, and throw back in the oven a couple of inches from the broiler for 30 seconds - 1 minute.
Alright, the picture probably doesnt make it look too appetizing but it realllllly is.
I served it with a butternut squash au gratin, and I will be posting the recipe for that later.
Try this recipe out!!
