Salmon With Mustard Thyme Sauce Recipe

Ingredients

1-2 lbs salmon fillet (scaled)

3 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large shallot

leaves from 3 sprigs of thyme (about 1 tablespoon)

3-4 teaspoons of country dijon mustard

juice and zest from 1/2 lemon

salt & pepper

Preparation

Heat butter and olive oil in a medium saucepan. Add finely chopped shallot and thyme. Cook on medium heat 3-4 minutes. Add mustard, lemon juice, zest, and stir until blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cool to room temperature.

Cut salmon into portion-sized strips. Marinate in bag with sauce about 20 minutes (sauce will be thick). Lay fish skin down on a foil lined baking dish. Top with excess sauce. Broil 5-6 minutes, flip fish skin-side-up and broil another 5-6 minutes, or until skin is crispy. Peel off skin and serve.
