Maple Dijon Salmon

 

You may never want to eat salmon any other way again. If you’ve browsed any of the recipes on this website, you might already get the idea that I like ‘easy’ in the kitchen. This dish takes only a few minutes to prep and tastes like a 5-star meal. The glaze used on this salmon is lightly sweet and savory with a hint of herbs adding the perfect balance to the dish… your taste buds will thank you.
