Serve this delightful salmon with a side of roasted asparagus or a simple quinoa salad for a complete and balanced meal. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can substitute the spicy brown mustard with Dijon mustard.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) with the rack in the upper third position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepIn a small bowl, whisk together the apricot preserves and spicy brown mustard until smooth and well combined. This glaze will transform your salmon into a culinary masterpiece. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
03
StepPlace the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced. Generously brush half of the apricot-mustard glaze over the top of each fillet, coating them beautifully. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven for 16 minutes. Remove the baking sheet and brush the remaining glaze over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Return to the oven and continue baking until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, approximately 2 minutes more. (Bake time: 18 minutes)
05
StepRemove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together even further. (Rest time: 3 minutes)
