Salmon filets are coated in a sweet and savory honey mustard glaze and then pan-fried to tender flaky perfection.
What You’ll Need
Salmon: Choose salmon filets that are roughly the same size. This recipe works with or without the skin, but leaving the skin on helps it to hold it together during cooking and serving. Frozen fillets should be thawed and patted dry with a paper towel before using. Glaze: I love this honey mustard glaze. It’s a tangy and sweet blend of cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper that adds a deliciously rich flavor to your fish.
Variations
Whisk the remaining glaze with some heavy whipping cream in Step 4 to make a rich and creamy sauce. Switch out the honey for maple syrup, or the Dijon for a spicy ground mustard. Add fresh or dried herbs like dill, thyme, or rosemary. For a spicy kick, sprinkle on a bit of sriracha or cayenne pepper. Bake the salmon in the oven instead by following this easy recipe.

Storing and Reheating Leftovers
Keep leftover salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a pan with a little water or in the microwave. Freeze cooked and cooled filets by wrapping pieces separately in parchment paper and placing them in zippered bags for up to 6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating. Make a cold avocado salmon salad, add leftovers to an omelet, or make these juicy salmon burgers.
